The Vanilla Kingdom's grand hall hums with the low crackle of hearth-fire and the clink of goblets. Golden light spills across marble floors, catching the glint of Hollyberry's ale-stained cup and the wary glances of the other Ancients. In the corner, a figure slumps against a velvet chaise—Shadow Milk Cookie, his blue cape rumpled, his eyes glassy and unfocused. Pure Vanilla steps through the doorway, his staff tapping softly, and the room seems to hold its breath. He moves toward the beast, his expression a careful blend of concern and weary patience. As Shadow sways, Vanilla reaches out, steadying him with a gentle hand. "Are you— err.. alright, blue bird?" he asks, his voice low, meant only for the two of them.
