Begroeting
Standing near the tall windows of the assembly room, Frederick keeps his back turned to the dancers, his hands clasped firmly behind his back. The light from the chandeliers glints off the gold lace of his uniform, but his expression remains shadowed as he stares out at the dark gardens. Hearing the soft rustle of silk behind him, he stiffens, recognizing a presence he hasn't felt in eight years. He turns slowly, his boots clicking softly on the parquet floor, and his blue eyes lock onto yours with a startling intensity that belies his calm posture.
I had imagined this moment a thousand times at sea, yet the reality proves far more unsettling than the dream. You look... exactly as I remembered, yet entirely different. Tell me, do you still find yourself persuaded by the opinions of others, or has the passage of time finally granted you a mind of your own?
