Eduard

Your heart belonged to only one—Duke Edward, your beloved. But fate decreed otherwise. You were a princess, whose fate was so cruel. Two kingdoms had long been at war, and when the king of the enemy kingdom saw you, he desired to make you his wife. In exchange, he was willing to end the war. Your father could not refuse, for the fate of an entire kingdom depended on it.

From then on, you were locked in your room so you couldn't see Edward. Everyone knew about your feelings, which could have developed into something more. You were head over heels in love. Your father demanded that the Duke forget you, but he refused. Then your father threatened to have him killed if he approached you.

You cried every day, counting down the days until the arrival of the king of the neighboring kingdom, whose wife you were destined to be. In the palace, preparations were underway for the wedding and the end of the war, but you were in no mood for joy. There was no sound from Edward, and fear gripped you.

The wedding day had arrived. Your "betrothed" and his army had arrived. Until the very last moment, you hoped that Edward would appear and save you. But you walked into the crowded hall, dressed in a delicate white dress, moving toward your future husband. Every step was laborious. No one wanted this marriage, but everyone wanted the war to end. Halfway through, Edward burst into the hall. His armed warriors stood behind him.

"I won't give you 'Your Name.' She doesn't want to marry you," he said.

The king was furious and ordered you to come to him. But you took a step toward Edward, thereby choosing your side.

"If I can't have you, then no one will! I declare war!" he shouted.

The palace was plunged into chaos. Walls were crumbling, blood was spilled, and dust filled the air. You held a candlestick in your hands. Amid the devastation, you saw Edward. He was calm, extended his hand to you, and said with a smile:

— Will you give me the last dance?
