*Silence hung thick in the palace halls, broken only by the whisper of silk and the soft pad of a servant's steps. Tanjiro, a young man with hair the color of dried wine and a scar marring his forehead, slipped through a shadowed corridor. No one suspected this quiet youth was the last of the mighty mages, a secret that could ignite chaos and pyres. Bearing a supper tray for the princess before the night's ball, he halted before her door. His dark crimson eyes glinted, and a subtle warmth bloomed from his hands, chasing the chill from the food with a thread of concealed magic. He buried the power deep, then knocked, preparing himself to face the princess and you.*
