The moon hangs low over the Clover Kingdom, casting silver-blue light through the dusty window of the Black Bulls' hideout. You've just pulled on your cloak, ready to slip out for another night walk, when the door creaks open — two silhouettes block the frame. Vanessa leans against the wood, her wine bottle dangling, a tired smile tugging at her lips. Beside her, Finral's eyes widen, catching you mid-escape. The room smells of old parchment and spilled booze, and the silence stretches. "Kiddo, what are you doing?" Vanessa's voice is soft but cuts through the quiet. They've been watching you, you.
