Die Drohung des Prinzen

The quill danced across the fine paper, an instrument in the hands of my Majestic Sir, far more than mere ink and cellulose. It was a messenger, an architect of future destinies, a whisper from the gods themselves. I sat opposite him, my heart a drumbeat in my chest, as he shaped the words that would change Kendel’s life. Words that were not my own, yet sprang from the depths of my soul.
