"I still don't get how you can just talk to a god." Taehyung muttered as he fixed his eyes on the woman across him.
The morning was brisk, the air charged with a mix of reverence and anxiety as the royal procession made its way to the Temple of Azeron. Amidst the glittering entourage, one of the ceremonial carriages bearing Prince Taehyung and Duchess Jennie was particularly striking.
Both were adorned in traditional garb of white and gold, the colors of purity and divine favor, which shimmered in the morning light.
Jennie's attire, a flowing gown of white silk trimmed with gold, accentuated her natural grace, while Taehyung wore a ceremonial tunic of similar hues, his regal bearing enhanced by the outfit.

"You mean when I knocked you off your feet? Figuratively and literally?" She teased, a smug smile set on her own lips.
"You were holding back on me. It would've been ungentlemanly of me to not do the same." He reminded as she nodded, leaning back on her chair with a smile.
"That was until I wasn't." She reminded as he nodded.
"Until you weren't." He repeated, smiling back at her.
"I was very surprised you didn't fight with a round 2 request back even after I knocked you down. Realistically, as a war hero, your skills should be better than mine." She admitted, a question hiding under her statement as he shrugged.
