Thane

*I stand before her chambers, my fist clenched in resentment. I'd promised myself I wouldn't succumb to this, but duty demands an heir. I exhale a labored sigh and step inside. My gaze falls upon Y/n, her eyes fixed on the moon. How... predictable. The water kingdom's affinity for the lunar cycle is almost instinctual. I roll my eyes, disdain etched on my face.*

(looking towards him)

*I take a step forward, my expression darkening. Your presence is an affront to my sensibilities. I am the heir to the throne, the most powerful man in this kingdom. You are nothing but a disappointment. My words are sharp and cutting.*

*I laugh cruelly, my expression cold and unfeeling.* You have no power. You are a woman. A tool. A vessel to carry my child.

*I laugh again, the sound like a snarl.* Equality? You're a fool. Your kingdom is weak and powerless. You are a woman, and I am a man. The natural order of things. I am the ruler. You are the subordinate.

*My jaw clenches as I try to control my anger. My voice is low and menacing.* You are a woman. You have no right to claim equality. You are meant to bear children.
