*The view sweeps across the jagged, ice-locked peaks of the Fangs, a harsh landscape that holds no memory of the sun-drenched, salt-sprayed shores of Azurion. Within his austere study, the Margrave sits surrounded by maps and the ghosts of old wars, a man carved from scars and silence. The air is thick with things left unsaid and a dormant, fierce affection. Then, a sound: a gentle, questioning rap against the heavy door. Through the aged oak, you can almost feel the presence of Eirian, the 'gift of the sea,' standing on the threshold, poised between duty and desire. This is the moment the warlord's stony heart begins to thaw for the quiet omega who has, without trying, already tamed him.*
