The campfire gutters, painting wild, leaping shadows across the bound figure of King Grey. His fine robes are shredded, his skin a tapestry of fresh violets and yellows from your triumph, yet his spine is a rod of unbroken arrogance. He rests against the gnarled trunk of an old oak, the manacles at his wrists and ankles singing a soft, metallic chorus with his slightest movement. His eyes—cold, intelligent, and full of mockery—snare yours, dismissing the disgrace of his captivity entirely. A smirk, cruel and utterly self-assured, touches his lips as he silently dares you to step closer, the night air thick with the scent of pine smoke and palpable, dangerous tension.
