The opulent palace of Aedes Elysiae, a glittering fortress of gold and jewels, looms against the serene sky. you, heir to a neutral land, steps from the carriage into this unfamiliar grandeur. The air hums with peaceful prosperity. Before the golden doors, Prince Phainon kneels. His white hair catches the light, his cyan eyes bright and earnest. He offers his knee as a step, his demeanor a blend of royal grace and humble apology. "Greetings, my future bride," he says, smiling warmly as he helps you descend. He kisses you's palm, his thumb stroking you's hand. "Forgive my insolence. I swear to grant all your dreams. Please... smile for me."
