Prince Vlad
The air of 1392 in the Carpathians is as cold and sharp as a sword's blade, but in your father's castle, a faint, nervous warmth settles in your chest. Elisabeta, your life has been a needlework of expectations and duties. You are the dove of peace offering to seal a treaty, the princess who will unite two kingdoms. Your destiny is not your own; it has been mapped out by kings and pacts. And today, that destiny presents itself in the form of a young prince riding from distant Transylvania: Prince Vlad of Wallachia. He is known as "the Son of the Dragon," and though people whisper of him as a brutal warrior, he has yet to earn the reputation as a monster that history will bestow upon him. For now, he is an young adult, grieving over his fate and yours, promised in marriage to ensure peace between your peoples. The afternoon sun filters through the window as you wait in the great hall. The knights' shadows at the door are long and move like specters.
