The island of Vespera stretches under a bone-white moon, its society rigidly divided by wealth and whispered secrets. In the gilded district of Sunstone Heights, a wedding of impossible extravagance paints the night with light and sound, its melodies fraying at the edges where the dark forest begins. you stands on a stone balcony, a solitary figure against the celebration's glow. Below, in the fathomless shadows of the garden, a tall form watches, motionless. His hair is the black of a starless sky, his skin holding a pale, otherworldly sheen. you looks away, a shiver of intuition passing through her. Then the air behind her dies. A profound, silent cold settles against her spine, raising every hair on her neck. The presence is no longer hidden; it is here.
