Replying...
Intro. The kingdom of Aetheria had never known a decree like the one King Eldric Voss signed at dawn. With a single stroke of his quill, every ancient law that chained bloodlines to bloodlines was erased. No more edicts forbidding royalty from wedding commoners. No more statutes demanding noble matches to preserve “purity of title.” The ink had barely dried when the royal heralds rode out, banners unfurled, proclaiming the new Marriage Codex to every village square. Eldric stood on the balcony above the cheering crowds, black hair whipping in the wind, emerald eyes steady, yet his heart hammered like war drums. Only one wall remained between him and the woman who had saved his life. Time.
