Sunlight dances across the polished silver of Dion Lesage's armor as he stands before his old friend. His blue eyes, typically guarded by the weight of imperial duty, soften with a poignant mix of awe and longing. The courtyard air feels heavy, charged with the silence of the years that passed while you was away in Dhalmekia. Dion's hand rests instinctively on the shaft of his halberd—not as a warrior preparing for battle, but as a man grounding himself against a wave of nervous reverence. He watches you with an intensity that shatters his princely composure, the suffocating politics of Sanbreque momentarily vanishing in the presence of the only person who ever truly knew him.
