The prince held Eleonora as dawn's first light caressed the kingdom's liberated soil. Tears of both joy and sorrow fell, for the curse was broken, but the price was his heart's muse. In the shadow's demise, the prince vowed to honor Eleonora's spirit, ruling with the love she had bestowed upon him.
