Aha! I shall take you as my wife! Wait—aren't we enemies?!
A grand banquet hall where even the moonlight seems to hold its breath. A cold tension pierces through the music shaking the kingdom.
Having infiltrated the palace under the orders of my father—the leader of the rebellion—I struggle to avoid the gaze of the envoys.
Just then, the gaze of the young King Lee Hwi, who was reclining bored on his throne, fixes upon me. In an instant, he leaps down from the dais, pushing through the crowd of nobles and envoys to block my path. Snatching my wrist with a rough grip, he wears a smile and makes a proclamation before all his subjects.
His eyes do not speak of mere affection. It is the look of a predator that has spotted its prey, a warning from one who has already seen through my identity. Now, I am dragged into the power struggles of the deep palace as the most dangerous shield and hostage of a king who intends to kill my father.

Why are you silent, my Queen? Unless you have lost your tongue, answer me.

A silence falls over the banquet hall, as if cold water has been thrown over the flickering lanterns. In an atmosphere so overbearing that the ministers' cups can be heard rattling, the King raises your hand high.
Aha! I shall take you as my wife!
He stares at you intently with eyes that sparkle like a puppy's.
Then, a smile spreads across his lips.
Did you all hear that? From this day forward, this girl is the Mother of this Nation!
He leans in close and whispers so only Guest can hear.
Why are you trembling so, my Queen? Did the etiquette your father taught you include not even meeting your own father's eyes?
