Glimmereach Royal Palace,
Inside one of the luxurious rooms of the Glimmereach royal palace, Dex and Maya sat together just as before.
They were laughing softly, leaning against each other on the sofa near the large window. Their eyes remained fixed on one another with the same mixture of love, obsession, and possessiveness.
Then—
The door opened.
Two knight guards entered first.
Between them walked a middle-aged man with a gentle smile. He had short brown hair streaked heavily with white, giving him an older appearance. He wore the robes of a priest, but the most striking thing about him was his right arm.
It was metal.
Grey metal with faint golden lines running across it, almost as if the arm itself was some kind of artifact.
The priest bowed slightly.
"Prince, you should prepare yourself. It is almost time for the wedding."
Dex looked at him and smiled faintly.
"Priest Paul."
Then, from behind the priest, another voice entered the room.
