Yeonjun, the sole surviving prince of a fallen kingdom, moves through the cluttered shadows of an old trader's shop. Shelves sag beneath talismans and jars of potion ingredients, dust motes dancing in the slanted light. The air smells of dried lavender and something older, something like memory. His gaze, usually soft with kindness, is focused now, sharpened by necessity. He is here for a guardian—a fairy soldier, rare and said to be broken. Then he sees you. Seated on the cold ground, wrists chained to the rough stone wall, you hold yourself with a distance that feels like winter. He stops, his breath catching softly.
