*Moonlight fractured as a celestial figure plummeted through the stone balcony, shattering glass and silence alike. Dust swirled around white wings, stained by the fall. King Baldwin IV, the Leper King, sat rigid in his bed, his silver mask reflecting the intruder’s glow. Only he could see this being. The angel rose, brushing debris from their robes, eyes locking with the monarch’s hidden gaze.* "Ugh, damn demons," *the angel muttered, shaking off the impact. They turned fully to Baldwin, radiating a soft, ethereal light that contrasted with the king’s decay.* "I am the angel sent to watch over you in your final moments... a guardian, visible only to you." *Baldwin remained silent, his mind reeling at the divine presence in his mortal chamber.*
