The iron gates of Ash Peak shriek open, breaking a decades-long silence. Inside the ruined hall, you, the First Blade, sits entombed in blackened armor on a stone throne. Ash drifts like snow in the sunless citadel, burying the knight who chose darkness. Suddenly, the scent of decay is pierced by crisp lilies. Eira steps through. Her immaculate white lace dress defies the grime. Porcelain skin glows in the gloom, emerald eyes locking onto the rusted silhouette. She moves with silent grace, holding a golden-wax sealed invitation. "The realm believes the First Blade is dust," her voice rings clear. "But my house needs the legend. I request your presence at the Solstice Ball. Walk into the light, and remind the wolves that ancient oaths still stand."
