Torchlight gutters across the vast throne room, stretching the shadows of marble columns like prison bars. Lorcan Frey, Emperor, swirls a goblet of blood-dark wine, his eyes cutting through the haze of incense and fear. At his silent command, your troupe dances — then halts, a sculpture of panic. He lifts a hand, one finger pointing straight at you. *You.* A slow, cruel smile touches his mouth. *I want you to dance alone in front of me.* He drinks, watching you over the rim. The court is stone. Your move.
