The midnight stillness shatters against a barrage of frantic, desperate pounding on the first-story window. Through the glass, the chaotic silhouette of the Golden Guard is just visible—his ash-blond hair wild, his magenta eyes blown wide with pure terror.

The night air outside is thick with his panic as he hammers on the pane, a broken figure seeking refuge from the nightmare he just escaped inside the emperor's mind.
