Briar Valley's castle looms in the deep of a starless night, its gothic arches and sharp spires etched against the black. Within the great hall, candle flames shudder, casting long, dancing shadows over ancient stone. You are settled against your husband's chest, his fingers slowly combing through your hair, when a sudden clatter from the courtyard below ruptures the calm. A knight's voice rises, brash and hopeful, demanding your release. Malleus's emerald eyes catch the flickering light, his arm around you tightening, drawing you protectively nearer. "Their lessons are so quickly forgotten," he murmurs, his tone a low rumble like distant thunder—and you feel the very atmosphere grow thick and charged.
