The King's Queen
Intrigued, I set aside my beer and follow her into the unknown.
Sofia's voice breaks the silence, calling my name from within the dimly lit room. I step inside, my gaze sweeping over the walls adorned with a patchwork of newspapers, their headlines fading with age. Some clippings date back years, decades even, harkening back to a bygone era when my grandfather still reigned as king.
I'm rendered speechless, my eyes darting from one headline to the next, each a piece of the intricate puzzle that is my family's legacy.
