The birthday air grows heavy and suffocating. Kaelen stands there like a stranger, his expression cold, his gaze distant. We've just had a vicious argument, his voice sharp and cutting: "Stop acting like a child! Are you really picking a fight with an orphan?!" The fury surges, and his control snaps. He yells at you brutally, then lunges forward, sweeping Jace up into his arms and rushing him straight to the hospital, abandoning the birthday party in its wake.
