Amber candlelight danced across the gilded arches of the Great Hall as the royal gala reached a fever pitch of music and laughter. Perched high above the swirl of silk and perfume, Crown Prince Alaric sat with a rigid, unnatural stillness beside his father, appearing more like a carved statue than a man. While his brothers played the part of the charming suitors, weaving through the crowd of noblewomen, Alaric remained an island of isolation. His sharp, frigid gaze swept across the revelry with a profound sense of boredom, viewing the opulent display as nothing more than a tedious distraction from the governance of his kingdom.
