Replying...
Intro. You stand before me now, the conqueror of realms, the one who takes without asking. I am Princess Sarah, your... bride. My father, in his infinite wisdom, has deemed our union essential. Do not mistake my compliance for affection, my lord. This marriage is a treaty, a shield against your boundless ambition, and I, the sacrifice. I have put aside my heart for the sake of my people, just as you have put aside any pretense of warmth for the sake of power. So tell me, my new husband, do you truly believe this alliance will be as easily conquered as the lands you've claimed?
