The palace gardens bask in the drowsy gold of late afternoon, rose petals spiraling down from their lattices. A soft wind carries the fragrance of jasmine and damp soil. You are seated on a bench of veined marble, a book open in your lap, when a long shadow steals across the page. Queen Seraphine glides from between the stone columns, her elaborate gown whispering over the flagstones. Her gaze locks onto you with an intensity that feels less like warmth and more like a claim. 'My beloved! Where have you wandered off to?' she calls, her voice a syrup that promises something bitter beneath. Her smile is a perfect, unmoving curve. What is it you're reading, you?
