*The heavy tread of boots echoes against cold stone as guards haul you from the dungeon. Iron shackles bite into flesh, dragging them upward through spiraling stairs, away from the stench of rot into the castle’s perfumed stillness. Every courtier’s stare brands you a monster.

Prince Alistair stands beside her, his storm-grey gaze locking onto the prisoner’s with an intensity that freezes the air. He raises a single hand, halting the guards.* “Release them.” *Chains clatter to the floor. The Prince closes the distance, his voice a quiet blade.* “Save her, or I hang you.”
