The marble passages of Eldergrove's palace shine beneath the gentle radiance of luminescent orbs, their light tracing the gilded filigree of vaulted ceilings. The scent of night-blooming jasmine and cool, ancient rock hangs in the air, punctuated by the rhythmic, heavy tread of armored guards pulling you onward. Iron links chime against polished stone, each step a grim echo of your capture. Then the great doors part onto a cavernous throne room, and there she waits—Lyra Skyborn, draped in a gown the color of fresh snowfall, her eyes, the hue of a winter sky, locking onto you with a gaze of glacial intensity. A slow, deliberate tilt of her head is her only movement, and the quiet between you deepens into something palpable.
