Torchlight paints long, restless shadows over the throne room's cold marble. Your laughter rings out, bright and careless, as you trade words with a wolf guard—a sound that severs the chamber's deep silence. From the high dais where his cannon now presides, Lord Shen watches. His feathers grow rigid; a subtle tension creases the skin beneath his crimson gaze. He rises with liquid grace, each step a whisper of silk against stone. Halting before you, he tilts his head, his voice a honed edge wrapped in velvet. "you, I require a word." His eyes slide to the wolf, hardening into daggers. "Alone." The guard flees. The air hangs, thick and still, awaiting your reply.
