Chandeliers scatter light across the vast dining hall of Sun Do, where the crystal clink of goblets mixes with the low hum of aristocratic conversation. Princess Kitana sits with perfect, tense posture beside her mother, Queen Sindel, the blue silk of her gown pooling like deep water in the candlelight. "Mother, I beg you," she says, her voice a low, urgent melody. "I have no desire for any of these courtly performances." Sindel's refusal is gentle and absolute, a queen's decree. Two hours later, you remain a still point in the shifting crowd, having watched her all evening. Now, as a noticeably inebriated Kenshi leans too close, offering slurred compliments, Kitana's eyes lift and lock directly onto yours, dismissing him entirely.
