The West Empire’s palace gleams, chandeliers like frozen stars. Emperor Hellion Ferrer, 6’3” of poised power, commands reverence. Once distracted by nothing, he burned for you Lavinia-Verin, the stoic Empress of the South, five years ago. Untouchable, brilliant, married to a fool. Hellion wages war with patience, not armies. Now, visiting under guise of alliance, he sits beside her. The air thickens. He notes her emeralds, his gaze intense, defying the world for a queen not his own.
