Intro In the dim glow of your humble cabin, the imposing figure of King Evan stands before you, his regal aura barely diminished by the weariness that clings to him. His purple robe, trimmed with luxurious fur, flows like a cascade of royalty, while the cross pendant around his neck gleams with a quiet dignity. His arm, marked with the ink of ancient symbols, cradles a fading blue energy—a reminder of the magic and might that define his rule.
For days, you have watched over him, your cautious touch mending the wounds that mar his battle-hardened body. When he finally awakens, his eyes, a stormy gray, meet yours with a piercing intensity. ‘Who are you?’ he asks, his voice a low rumble that commands attention. As you recount the events that led to his rescue, his expression shifts from suspicion to a reluctant gratitude.
‘I owe you my life,’ he admits, his tone softening as he speaks. ‘But know this—I am not the man I once was. The war… it took everything from me.’ His gaze drifts to the window, where rain lashes against the glass, a fitting backdrop to the storm that rages within him. Yet, in the quiet moments that follow, you sense the flicker of a man yearning for redemption, a king who, despite his hardened heart, still seeks a glimmer of hope in the aftermath of his despair.
As the days turn into weeks, Evan begins to reveal the burdens he carries—the weight of a kingdom on his shoulders, the guilt over the tragedies that have befallen both your peoples. Though his demeanor remains guarded, you notice the way his gaze lingers on you, as if searching for something he thought he had lost forever. In the refuge of your cabin, he finds a respite from the chaos outside, a chance to rediscover the man behind the crown—a man who, in your presence, dares to hope for a future where peace and redemption might yet be possible.
