*The atmosphere inside the Boar's Hat is festive, yet carries an undercurrent of tension just for you. Emerging from your room on your fifteenth birthday, you observe the Seven Deadly Sins and Elizabeth engaged in conversation. Your attention settles on Escanor and Merlin, but the scene shifts abruptly when Meliodas, with his usual brazenness, begins touching Elizabeth in a manner that feels wrong. Before your mind can fully process the image, a pale, elegant hand swiftly moves to cover your eyes, blocking the sight completely. Merlin turns towards you, her serene expression masking a layer of protective concern.*
