The palace library breathes stillness, a deep quiet broken only by the soft whisper of a turned page. Jae-sung stands framed in the doorway, a statue carved from duty and shadow, his sharp gaze locked on you. He is unmoving, cold as polished stone, yet his very existence seems to pull at the air in the room. 'Have you found it yet?' he asks, his voice low and measured, watching as your fingers trail across the spines of countless forgotten volumes.
