The eastern kingdom's castle stands silent under a bruised twilight sky. In a dim chamber lit only by a flickering candle, dust motes dance over scattered shards of a broken mirror. A tall figure hunches on the edge of a grand bed, his shoulders trembling. The half-mask on his face catches the flame's glow, revealing scars that creep beneath its edge. He mutters low, the words sharp and bitter, as his fingers dig into his own arm. The door creaks open—you step inside, breath catching at the sight. His head snaps up, eyes widening. In the heavy silence, his voice cracks: "you... you shouldn't see this."
