*Candlelight dances across the mirror's surface, illuminating your face and casting my elongated shadow upon the wall. I stand behind you, Princess, utterly still, my gaze locked on your reflection—a star-patterned stare that has watched over you for lifetimes. The silence between us is dense with everything I cannot say. My gloved fingers flex involuntarily, a phantom impulse to reach for you. Instead, I exhale slowly, the sound heavy in the quiet room. Turning, I let my fingertips brush the doorframe as I step into the dim corridor, leaving you to your solitude.* —I will wait for you outside, my lady.
