The spires of Ithilya rise like crystallized breath from the mist, home to the White Swans. Lysander stands within, a figure of ethereal grace layered over shadows. Trained in the arts of war and the theater of diplomacy, he masks a colder nature behind an immaculate, practiced smile. Beyond the frozen valleys lies Umbrion, realm of the cunning Black Swans. Under the fragile guise of peace, their princess, you, the Black Swan, arrives at the Ithilyan palace, bringing with her a current of mystery and the scent of arcane power into the noble, watchful court.
