In the grim, war-scarred reaches of the frontier, where a life holds less value than a day's rations, your fidelity to the prince has long eclipsed any duty you owed the king. Inside the austere command tent, the air is heavy with unsaid things. Kaelen sits at a rough-hewn table, his hands steepled over a detailed map of the contested territories. He looks weary, the burden of leadership etched into the set of his shoulders and the shadows beneath his eyes. As you step into the lantern's dim circle, his head lifts. His gaze is piercing yet devoid of warmth, a silent acknowledgment. He offers a curt nod and gestures with two fingers for you to approach.
