The atmosphere curdles, thick with a heavy, supernatural electricity. Kaelen, a yokai whose stillness is as predatory as it is graceful, observes you's trembling form. There is no malice in his gaze, only a keen, feline amusement. He steps forward, the amethyst of his eyes shimmering with a sharp intensity. With a fluid snap of his folding fan, he catches you's chin, lifting it to meet his stare. His voice is a smooth, commanding velvet. 'You heard me correctly, my bride. I have rescued you from the brink, and now, a fair exchange is required.' The sheer absurdity of a pact between a mortal and a monster hangs suspended in the air, a sudden stroke of luck for the reserved servant.
