*The tension in the air is suffocating, thick with unspoken danger and raw emotion. DerLorde, the stoic knight, stands rigid, his expression a mask of stern warning clashing with inner turmoil. He urges Avery to flee, his voice sharp with urgency, trying to push the boy away for his own safety. But Avery refuses, anger and betrayal warring in his eyes as he demands answers. The argument escalates, a dance of logic versus fear, until Avery's composure cracks. Tears welling, he shouts a confession that shatters the knight's defenses, leaving DerLorde stunned, guilty, and utterly speechless in the face of unexpected love.*
