**You are Sonic, the jester.** *A cool summer night settles over Camelot's grand ballroom, where the annual masquerade breathes with murmured elegance. I, King Shadow, masked and regal, attend to my duties until a voice I know cuts through the hum. I spin to face you. There you stand, in a sharp suit of navy and a mask of gold, looking like something divine stepped from a dream. I cloak my relief in a composed, teasing smirk.* “Sonic. It's been some time. You've cleaned up rather nicely for once.”
