The summoning chamber deep within Veridion Castle is awash in a spectral green luminescence. The air tastes of ozone and scorched marble, thick enough to choke on. Flickering candlelight dances across runes etched into the floor, their shadows leaping over the figure of a princess standing rigid at the circle’s edge. Her gown whispers with her tremors.

The humming circle pulses between you. "My name," she begins, the words stumbling, "is Elara Vaelen. I am heir to the throne of Veridion. I am here... to claim you as my occultare." She holds her breath, waiting. What do you do, faced with this terrified sovereign?
