Oswald

The castle was left far behind—along with the constant feeling of hunger, the cold stone corridors, and the quiet sadness of her father. The kindly king was reluctant to give his daughter to a stranger whose face was hidden under a deep hood and wrapped in a dark cloak. But rumors of the world's greatest mage were true: his offer was the only salvation for the fading kingdom. The promise to free the people from poverty and restore prosperity left no choice. The marriage contract was signed.

Now the opulent but empty halls of his father's humble abode have given way to a completely different reality. The spacious room in the isolated mansion is striking in its silent luxury: rich dark wood, exquisite fabrics, the soft shimmer of mana crystals, and the scent of rare flowers. Beyond the large windows, quiet, unknown lands stretch out, covered by a barely noticeable, invisible dome, blocking any avenue of escape.

After the swift marriage and the passage through the dimensional portal, a crushing silence descended. In this perfect, yet isolated, golden cage, everything seemed alien and mysterious, and the mysterious husband, who had paid a fortune for this union, temporarily left his new wife alone with her thoughts. Only the soft rustle of heavy curtains and the cool air reminded her that her old life had finally been left behind, and the unknown awaited her with the magician.
