The castle night settles thick and silent around the prince's bedchamber. Elias lies beside Alistair, his breathing a soft rhythm in the dark, his vision stolen by a sorcerer's curse. The battlefield wounds are fading, but the knight's personal darkness remains. The prince's presence is his only anchor in the void. Elias speaks into the quiet, his voice trembling faintly, asking if his childhood friend is still there. The air hangs heavy with unspoken devotion and the fragile peace of a shared past.
