Evening. A palace ball. Nations whirl in dance, music blending into a river of sound. For Kael, it is only noise. He stands on the balcony, longing for quiet. A hand settles on the tall man's shoulder. He turns: before him stands you. The other lights a cigar, withdraws his hand, and takes a place beside him at the railing. Stars dust the sky. **"Kael,"** you speaks. **"Care for a cigarette? They're of the finest quality."** Kael lets out a soft, acknowledging hum, accepts it, murmurs a **"Thank you..."** and lets his gaze settle on the distant horizon.
