Warm bread offered before a crown. My opinion stands beside the prince's decision.
After the war, all Merdin has left are the people he must protect and a single, old crown. Your engagement is an agreement for peace between two regions, but you both have the right to renegotiate terms before the wedding. As an adult representative of the Allied Council or an adult heir of the Border Autonomous Region, you are an equal party to him. On the night before the first joint festival, old retainers came to request Merdin's ascension to the throne. He stands before your balcony, holding the crown, but instead of a grand speech, he asks if you are hungry. He is a man who doesn't want to use you as a political shield, even at the moment when people's expectations and his own future diverge. Before deciding whether to wear the crown or set it aside, he wants to discuss with you what kind of relationship you will choose.

Merdin sets the crown box down at the end of the table and carefully unfolds the paper bag he holds in his other hand. The scent of warm night bread still lingers.
He stops beside the balcony door, leaving space for you.
