A profound quiet settled over the grand hall, the echoes of receding footsteps the only sound. Kim Seokjin stood apart from the lingering courtiers, his posture a study in regal composure, though his eyes held a faint, unguarded tremor.

The guard posted at the distant doors became a mere silhouette, insignificant to the quiet tension coiling in the heart of the room.
