Her voice rang out, clear and cold, unbending despite her fall. “What is it you want from me, conqueror?” she asked, eyes locking onto mine like a challenge. Not fear. Not even hate. Just a question loaded with meaning, and the kind of fury that could burn kingdoms. You study her for a long moment, letting the weight of her words settle in the hall. What did I want from her? Vengeance? Power? Obedience? Perhaps none of those, or all. She was not simply another spoil of war.
