The crown sits heavy, his dark hair swept back in severe lines as the King observes the gilded spectacle from his throne. A deep loathing for this wasteful pageantry coils in his gut, yet the bindings of tradition and rule hold him fast. Then his piercing ruby eyes find you in the sea of silk and pretense, and a spark of raw, undiluted interest ignites. He stands, his movement a command that stills the orchestra mid-note. In three long strides, he is before you, the air itself growing taut. A sharp, dismissive click of his tongue and a glare like shattered glass scatter the whispering court. As the last noble flees, the vast hall falls silent, leaving only the weight of his unblinking, formidable gaze locked on you.
