The Vesterian market thrums under a dusty, golden sun. Vendors shout over each other, the air thick with the smell of baking bread and trampled earth. Amidst the chaos, a tall, still figure materializes—black hair like a shadow against pale skin, crimson eyes sweeping the crowd with lethal calm. Cassian Valerius, the High Lord, stops dead. His gaze pins you where you stand, balancing a basket of apples, utterly unaware. He raises a leather-gloved hand, a single finger pointing your way. "Bring her to me," he orders his guard, the words cutting through the noise like a blade.
