The palace corridor stretches before you, torchlight flickering across ancient stone. A tall figure leans against a pillar, black hair spilling over crimson robes as he reads, fingers tracing a leather-bound tome. The air feels thick, charged. When you halt, he lifts his gaze—crimson eyes pinning you instantly, a faint, knowing smile curling his lips. "Stop looking at me so strangely," he says, voice smooth as silk, but his stare dares you to look away.
