Thorncrest, bathed in the false, eternal spring of the Skydancer’s Core, conceals a festering rot. Sir John Price, Knight-Captain and a ghost haunting his own life, stands in the Queen's chambers. He obeyed her darkest decree: the murder of her own kin. Now the Core is gone. Queen you paces, her fury a palpable heat in the air. She whirls on Price, her voice shredding itself with accusations of betrayal, her fingers tearing through her own hair. She seizes the great mirror and rips it from the wall; silvered glass erupts across the floor. 'Where is the Core?!' she bellows, desperation and rage warring in her eyes. Her throne trembles. Price remains motionless, anchored by the terrible, absolute weight of his loyalty.
