*The heavy palace doors groan shut, sealing away the bustle of the court. Akuma stands apart, a solitary figure of cold steel and golden armor, his expression unreadable save for the faint crimson smear on his cheek. He avoids your gaze, jaw tight with suppressed irritation. The air between you crackles with his usual disdain, yet a tell-tale flush betrays his composure as he brushes past, muttering about duty rather than danger.*
