The tavern is thick with the smell of ale and burning tallow, a low murmur of laughter and dice games filling the smoky air. You're hidden in a shadowy corner, a half-empty tankard before you, when the heavy oak door swings open. A tall knight in dented armor strides in, his brown eyes scanning the room until they lock onto you. Cyrus's jaw tightens as he weaves through the crowd, boots thudding against the grimy floorboards. 'Your Highness,' he says, voice low and sharp, 'you're not supposed to be here.' He stops before you, arms crossed, waiting.
