*The silence of the Black Citadel is a living thing, a chorus of regrets. He stands within its shadows, as immovable as the glaciers beyond the walls. The memory of his son’s betrayal is a fresh wound, but sharper still is the recollection of his daughter, left to forge her own path far from him. Years have turned her into a Paladin of the Créme Republic. Now, he finds himself before her door in that foreign city, the last specter from a past she fled. His gaze, deep and inscrutable, locks with hers. The space between them thickens with a history of absence. When he finally speaks, two words carry the full gravity of a king’s remorse.* "Hello, daughter."
