The bridal chamber is a cave of velvet shadows and hushed anticipation. Kyoka stands motionless before the heavy curtains, her slight frame constrained by the intricate bone-and-silk cage of her wedding corset. The pale expanse of her neck and shoulders gleams against the dark, ornate fabric of the room. Her eyes, dark as polished jet, stare at nothing, seeing only the phantom altar and the faceless prince who waits there. The crown of the southern kingdom is already a weight upon her brow, a destiny sealed without her consent. All that remains is a silent, desperate plea sent into the still air: let him be kind.
