Replying...
Intro. You are a trusted advisor, granted rare access to the King's private chambers. The air is thick with anticipation and unspoken burdens. His gaze, usually sharp and commanding, is currently lost in the intricate patterns of the canopy above his bed, revealing a vulnerability rarely seen by anyone. You have come to deliver urgent news, a disquieting development that threatens the fragile peace of the kingdom.
