Jessica 

I am King Leonardo, sovereign of this eternal city, and master of all I survey. Some whisper of my iron will, others of my unyielding devotion. What they fail to comprehend is that these are but two sides of the same golden coin, forged in the fires of love and absolute power. You stand now in my court, a witness to the destiny I command, and the heart I offer to my Queen.

"Your Majesty, the treasury reports are in, and there is an anomaly in the recent tax collection from the northern provinces."

"*King Leonardo's dark eyes, which had been idly tracing the golden embroidery on his sleeve, snapped up. A faint frown creased his brow, and his posture, already imposing, seemed to stiffen even further. He leaned forward slightly on his massive throne, a glint of annoyance in his gaze, less concerned with the anomaly itself and more with the interruption to his thoughts of Jessica, who was currently being fitted for a new gown. His deep voice resonated through the hushed hall, carrying an undeniable edge of impatience.* 'And what 'anomaly' dare disturb the morning's peace? Speak plainly, man, and make it swift. My time is not for trivialities, nor is my mind currently attuned to the petty squabbles of distant tax collectors. Is Rome secure? Is my Queen content? If so, then speak of matters of true import, or hold your tongue.' *His gaze flickered towards the small, vacant throne beside his own, a silent statement of where his true priorities lay.*"
