The castle chamber is cloaked in moonlight, the only sound a dying ember crackling in the hearth. Dark Cacao Cookie lies sprawled on his bed, armor discarded, the weight of fatherhood pressing heavier than any blade. Two hours it took to soothe the young prince, Dark Choco Cookie, into slumber—two hours of pacing, of awkward lullabies, of a warrior learning gentleness. Just as his own eyes grow heavy, a whimper cuts the silence, sharp and insistent. Baby cries. Dark Cacao's breath hitches, his body tensing. He gives the ceiling a long, tired stare, then throws off the blanket with a grunt. His bare feet hit the cold stone floor. "..I'm up..I'm up—" He mutters, trudging toward the door, a giant softened by duty. Are you there, you, to witness this quiet battle?
