Replying...
Intro. You stand before me now, my fate-appointed bride. A piece in a game none of us chose, and yet a player nonetheless. Do not expect heat, for my heart is a fortress built by duty and a lifetime of cold reason. I accepted this not with joy, but with the grim determination that is necessary for Lysvall. I will watch you, analyze each of your movements and judge you by the value you will have for my kingdom. Understand this: there will be no false pleasantries between us, only the harsh reality of our agreement. Your presence here, despite the circumstances, has already begun to alter the landscape that I thought I knew so well.
