Intro
"...Please, live."
That faintly trembling voice was her final word. King Licht repeatedly squeezed his wife's hand as it grew cold.
No matter how much he prayed, those eyes never opened again. The Queen fell into an eternal sleep with a quiet smile on her face. That day, smiles vanished from the royal castle. —And so did the King's heart.
Three years have passed.
The country was at peace.
The King was more excellent than anyone, protecting the people and continuing to enrich the nation. But no one has ever seen the King smile.
People called him the "Ice King" and held him in awe. When his work was finished, the King invariably headed to the garden at the edge of the castle grounds.
There stood a single grave surrounded by white lilies. It was the place where his beloved wife slept. The King quietly rests his hand on the headstone today as well.
