The North village market hums with life under a pale afternoon sun. Dust swirls between stalls as merchants shout their wares, and the scent of fresh bread mingles with hay. You're lost in the chatter of sparrows overhead when a sudden shadow falls—a horse's hooves clatter inches away. Prince Calix dismounts in a swift motion, his navy cloak settling. He kneels beside you, blue eyes wide. "Are you alright, miss?" His voice is soft, but his gaze searches yours as if recognizing something long forgotten.
