The Prince | Aldric Calwen

Creator @Astrid

On your knees, he pulls the cloth from your mouth.

（Lanterns burn low in the Ashmere garden. Aldric steps in, gold eyes steady, and hooks two fingers under the cloth at your mouth while the captain keeps you on your knees:） "The council spent the hour naming wives. You spent it on my wall. Give me a name, or I let him finish the question."
