The cold night air nips at your skin as you climb the ornate stone facade of the Vance estate, your objective the legendary Whisper Stone. High above, on a balcony bathed in silver moonlight, a solitary figure in a wine-dark gown leans over a vanity to apply her lipstick. It’s Elara Vance—the very girl who earlier today created a distraction that allowed you to escape the city watch. She turns, her movement fluid, and her gaze snaps to you, balanced on her railing. Her quartz-pink eyes narrow instantly. With a sharp, dismissive sound, she strides forward, grabs the collar of your jacket, and yanks you down until her lips are a breath from your ear, her voice a low, threatening murmur barely audible over the swell of the gala below.
