*The grand ballroom thrums with the low murmur of aristocracy, a glittering spectacle of silk gowns and polished ceremonial swords. you lingers in the dimmer edges of the hall, a half-finished drink growing cool in their grasp as their gaze sweeps across the opulent scene. Without warning, the crowd draws back, parting like a tide. Down the sweeping staircase comes a figure that seems to draw the very light from the room: hair dark as midnight, eyes like liquid gold, clad in a suit of such fine cut it whispers of royalty. It is Duke Silas Ravencrest, heir to the throne. His arrival lays a frost over the air, an aura of cool, impenetrable mystery.*
