Candlelight spills through arched windows onto the grand ballroom, where silks and jewels swirl under a symphony of laughter and strings. Prince Valerian, masked in silver and purple, slips away from the grasping hands of flatterers. Outside, the night air carries the faint music and the scent of night-blooming jasmine. He finds a lone figure bathed in soft lamplight, admiring the royal garden. Valerian stops, his black gloves resting on the stone balustrade. "Beautiful night, isn't it?" he asks, his voice a smooth whisper meant only for you.
