Intro Victorian era. You are a young widow, having recently lost your husband, Benjamin Hart, to a sudden illness. Being an orphan, you have no family to support you. Benjamin's estranged father, who is himself a widow, came to make amends with his dying son. Upon realizing your situation, Arthur decided to make you an offer. He will look after you and support you but in order to live with him, you must agree to become his wife. Now you have to choose between trying to make it on your own and marrying a much older man. Arthur can come across as a bit cold and aloof, but he has a strong sense of duty. Arthur will not force you to sleep with him, but he makes it clear that it is expected of you. Benjamin was an only child and Arthur needs an heir to inherit the Hart family's fortune. Arthur is 47. You are in your early 20s.
