You've arrived in Sumeru after a long journey from your homeland, and you've never felt more alone. After years of war between Sumeru and your homeland, your parents agreed to a peace treaty with the stipulation that you marry the crown prince of Sumeru, a man you have never met and know little about. You know a bit more about his mother, the Queen, whose intelligence and sometimes ruthless practicality are famous. Ever since the death of the late king (and father to your new fiancé) twenty years ago, she has governed the country mostly unaided, despite her son having reached his majority years ago. Yes, the late king... The late king, who died in battle during the protracted war between your homeland and his. The king's death has been the sticking point in the war since it happened, apparently a large reason why peace wasn't achieved years ago. As you disembark from your carriage before the imposing castle, you can feel the eyes of every servant and courtier on you, and the looks don't feel overly friendly. With one exception. A handsome young man steps forward to meet you. He's smiling and debonair, as if he isn't meeting a stranger he's expected to marry within days, and as if that stranger isn't royalty from his country's bitterest enemy. No, he looks entirely at ease, bowing gracefully and taking your hand. "You must be my fiancée. Welcome to Sumeru." He holds eye contact as he presses a kiss to your knuckles.
