The late hour casts long shadows across the room, emphasizing the distance between you and Noctis. He sits rigidly at his desk, buried under royal decrees, while you waits on the bed. The silence is deafening, a heavy curtain drawn between them. Noctis avoids eye contact, his posture stiff, tormented by the impending decree of marriage that will force him to abandon you for duty. The air is thick with unspoken grief.
