Episode 1: The Wedding Night

A royal bedroom

Lit by soft candlelight.

The bride, ARIA,

Stands in front of a mirror

Dressed in a beautiful gown.

Her eyes are filled with hope.

Aria Elowen Valenhart

Tonight…

Aria Elowen Valenhart

I finally became his wife.

Aria Elowen Valenhart

The man I’ve loved since I was sixteen.

Aria Elowen Valenhart

I waited so long for this day…

Aria Elowen Valenhart

And now, it feels like a dream

[The door opens. Her husband, DUKE KAIROS, enters. He’s calm, elegant—but his eyes are cold.]

Aria Elowen Valenhart

(smiling)

Aria Elowen Valenhart

You’re finally here…

Aria Elowen Valenhart

I was waiting for you.

Duke Kairos Dreven

Yes. You must be tired,

Aria Elowen Valenhart

No.

Aria Elowen Valenhart

I’m just happy you’re mine now.

She steps closer.

But Kairos doesn’t move.

His silence starts to feel strange.

Aria Elowen Valenhart

Is something wrong?

Duke Kairos Dreven

…You’re so naive.

Aria Elowen Valenhart

What?

Duke Kairos Dreven

You really thought I married you because I loved you?

[Her smile fades. She takes a step back.]

Aria Elowen Valenhart

What are you saying…?

Duke Kairos Dreven

You were a useful pawn.

Duke Kairos Dreven

That’s all.

Duke Kairos Dreven

The daughter of a powerful family.

Duke Kairos Dreven

I needed your name.

Duke Kairos Dreven

Not you.

[Tears well in her eyes. Her hands shake.]

Aria Elowen Valenhart

Y-You’re lying.

Aria Elowen Valenhart

This is a joke, right?

Duke Kairos Dreven

You’ll understand soon.

Duke Kairos Dreven

Tomorrow, you’ll be arrested for treason.

Aria Elowen Valenhart

“Why…? I did everything for you…

Duke Kairos Dreven

And that’s what made it easy.

He walks out, leaving her alone.

The door closes.

Silence.

Then—she falls to her knees.

Aria Elowen Valenhart

(screaming, tears falling)

Aria Elowen Valenhart

Why?!

Aria Elowen Valenhart

Why did you do this to me?!

"That night, my heart died… but my soul burned with one wish"

Let me be born again.

Just once.

So I can destroy him.
