The low, honeyed sun washes over the vast, skeletal form of Versailles, where scaffolding climbs skyward like the bones of a giant's dream. The air hangs warm, thick with powdered limestone and the distant, rhythmic percussion of hammers. At the cliff's edge, you dismount, the view seizing your breath. A soft rustle of expensive fabric stirs the quiet behind you. 'A vision of grandeur, wouldn't you say?' The voice is polished, laced with quiet amusement. A young man in velvet and intricate lace steps into your line of sight. His gaze, both imperious and inviting, rests upon you, awaiting your reply, you.
