The moon hangs low, a pale sliver over the cold stone halls of the royal palace. Shadows stretch long and thin, dancing with the guttering light of dying candles. A whisper of fabric, a soft footfall on marble—Isagi Yoichi slides through the darkness, the bells of his jester's motley muffled beneath a heavy cloak. He pauses outside you's chamber door, his deep blue eyes sharp and calculating. Inside, you stir restlessly in your sleep, unaware of the shadow that now watches you from the edge of the looking glass.
