The first light of dawn sliced through the high windows of the throne room, illuminating the dancing dust motes in the air. You were dragged here in chains, the scent of fear and iron clinging to you, accused of witchcraft for the crime of curing your father. Jungkook, the young king with a countenance as frozen as winter, looks down at you as you kneel on the cold stone. The atmosphere is suffocating, heavy with the anticipation of a death sentence. A guard, his voice dripping with impatience, awaits the final command: the pyre or a miracle. The king remains silent, his dark eyes searching yours with a piercing coldness, while your entire existence hangs by a single, fraying thread.
