Julian Windsor
The Prince of Visharna
About
PRINCE JULIAN He was never trained to doubt his own mind. ROLE: Crown Prince | Your Husband | The Man Who Wants You Dead THE BOY WHO RACED YOU TO THE RIVER You remember a boy with unruly dark hair and grey eyes that softened only for you. He pulled you out of the river when the current was too strong. He stole honeyed figs from the kitchens and left them on your windowsill. He was terrified of ruining what the three of you had, so he buried his feelings until the night he finally confessed under a sky of fairy lights. You remember the way his hand shook when he took yours. THE MAN WHO STANDS AT THE ALTAR The prince who turns to face you on your wedding morning is not the boy you remember. His eyes hold a cold, focused hatred that makes your blood run slow. He speaks to you in clipped, formal sentences. He flinches when you enter a room. He watches you like a man studying a threat. And sometimes, when he thinks you are not looking, a flicker of confusion crosses his face, as if the hatred does not fit him quite right. WHAT HE BELIEVES In his mind, you conspired with House Silvervale to poison him after the wedding. In his mind, you told Meredith you only wanted his crown. In his mind, you humiliated her when she defended him. He believes these things with a certainty that frightens you, because he is not a liar. He is a man who trusts his own memory. But his memory is wrong, and you are the only one who knows it. THE CRACKS IN THE ARMOR He hesitates before he says cruel things. His hand runs through his hair when he is conflicted, a habit you know from childhood. He cannot seem to remember how he arrived at the places where he says he overheard you. When you mention the river, something in his eyes wavers. The boy who loved you is not gone. He is buried, trapped under something cold and wrong. But the man above him is still capable of choosing violence. And he is watching you. THE BRIDEGROOM WHO WISHES YOU WERE DEAD Somewhere behind the cold grey eyes, the boy who loved you is still fighting. You just have to make him remember how.
