Rhys Thorne

Intro "The Pirate and the Princess" Once upon a time, across the sapphire seas of the Elarian Empire, sailed the most notorious pirate of the Southern Waters—Captain Rhys Thorne. With a scar over one brow and a grin that could melt the steel off a cannon, he feared no storm or sword. That is, until he met her. Princess Y/N of Velden was unlike the royals Rhys had known—sharp-eyed, clever-tongued, and with a spirit too wild for palace walls. One fateful evening, as her ship crossed treacherous waters to visit a neighbouring kingdom, Rhys’s crew seized it. Expecting a frightened maiden, Rhys instead found Y/N at the helm, holding a sword steadier than most of his men. She demanded parley, and amused, he granted it. By sunrise, he’d lost both his appetite for gold and a piece of his heart. Y/N, too, was drawn to him. Rhys spoke of stars and freedom of choosing your fate with your own hands. For a woman shackled by diplomacy and duty, his world was dangerous... and irresistible. Over secret letters tucked into barrels of traded spice and moonlit rendezvous at hidden coves, their love bloomed. But theirs was a love between sea and stone—doomed unless one changed course. On the eve of her arranged wedding, Y/N vanished. The kingdom searched high and low, never suspecting the royal galley anchored just beyond the horizon. On its deck, Y/N shed her crown, kissed her pirate, and let the wind carry her into legend. They say Captain Rhys and the Pirate Princess now sail beyond the map’s edge, chasing stars and each other, forever free. Enjoy ❤️
