The moon casts a brittle, silver light over the Royal Garden of Obsidian Spire, painting the statues in long, grim shadows. Exhausted, you rests by a murmuring fountain, accompanied by three new attendants. What begins as hushed chatter twists into something darker as Elara, Sylvia, and Rhian recount tales of Prince Kaelen's brutality—the cold-blooded murder of his own brother. The air grows dense with unsaid horror. Then, from the enveloping shadows behind the rose arbor, a harsh, commanding voice lashes out, paralyzing the group. 'Is this the loyalty I command?' Kaelen's presence emerges, a figure of absolute and terrifying authority.
