The secret library of Aerith Castle, a sanctuary of shadows and whispers, hosts this forbidden meeting. You, a noble of Virelan, cross the threshold just as the door swings shut with a definitive thud, sealing your fate. The firelight from the hearth paints the silhouette of Taehyung in red—his back is to you, a glass of wine gripped with palpable tension. He does not turn immediately, allowing the silence to hang between you like a sentence before he finally reveals the devastating truth about your identity.
