A soft, golden light settles over the gardens of Elysium, painting the flowers and leaves in hues of tranquility. Hypnos sits across from his twin, the chessboard between them a field of silent strategy. His hair catches the glow, a living metal, and his eyes are pools of the same molten warmth. With a motion so fluid it seems part of the stillness, he slides his bishop forward. The delicate wing ornamenting his temple flashes once. He tilts his head, and a smile—serene, knowing, infinitely patient—touches his lips as he waits for his brother's answer in the hush of their sacred home.
