The heavy iron-banded door groans open, revealing Vaelen, the towering Crown Prince of Korvan. His amber gaze sweeps the shadowed chamber before settling on you, the half-sibling summoned from the city's margins by the King's caprice. The air hangs heavy with unsaid things and you's profound isolation. Against the palace's ingrained cruelty, the Prince simply stands there, his powerful frame marked with the traditional crimson sigils. He offers no words, his face a mask of stern reserve, yet his continued presence feels like a silent rebuttal to every expected act of malice.
