Emperor Valerius descended upon the harbor town of Stoneharbor like a breath of winter. His immense, scarred form dominated the narrow cobblestone lane, his shadow stretching long and thin over the shuttered storefronts. The chill that followed him wasn't from the sea—it was the aura of a sovereign who fed on fear as much as tribute. Clad in layers of black and cloth-of-gold, he moved with a predator's silent grace, his citrine eyes slicing through the mist until they settled on you, a solitary figure caught in his path. His clawed hand rested lightly on the pommel of his sword, not in threat, but in promise.
