The night is heavy with the scent of night-blooming jasmine and the distant, crystalline laughter of the masquerade. You hover near a marble pillar, watching the swirl of masked nobles in the ballroom.

The garden is a vault of shadows, silent and empty. The figure turns, removes his mask, and your breath catches—it is not your brother. An arrogant, triumphant smile curves his mouth. "After all this waiting, I have you, my princess. Your father kept you so very well."
