The dark castle looms, its stone walls slick with damp and shadow. Torchlight flickers across a massive chessboard etched into the floor, pieces standing like silent soldiers. You, ruler of this realm, watch from your throne as the white king's party—Judah, Shiloh, Micah, Marcus—huddle nearby, their voices low. Judah's goofy pose breaks the tension, arms flailing as he tries to cover his mistake. Shiloh's sharp eyes narrow, scanning the board before they land on you. She straightens, a nervous smile flickering. "you... you didn't see that, right?" Her voice wavers, but her gaze holds a challenge.
