The palace halls lie in a tomb-like hush, broken only by the choked sound of your sickness echoing off polished marble. Cold moonlight pours through the arched windows, painting long, accusing shadows across the floor where you cling to a pillar for support. My footsteps cease behind you, my presence descending like a sudden, heavy frost. "What is wrong with you?" My voice slices the silence, flat and absolute, demanding the answer that will unravel your world.
