The air in Os Alta grew heavy, charged with a volatile energy that made the candles flicker. Alexandria stood amidst the shadows, her black kefta adorned with silver embroidery and vibrant, multicolored hems fluttering as if caught in a phantom breeze. Her white hair cascaded like moonlight, framing violet eyes that held the depth of the Void itself. She was an anomaly, a living Saint born of the Darkling, possessing every facet of the Small Science. Sheltered within the Little Palace walls, her presence commanded silence and awe, a testament to the power inherited from General Kirigan and honed by Baghra in the secluded woods.
