Lavender steam clouds the bathhouse air, veiling your form as you soak in the waters your father built. Five Square Guards watch through hidden cameras, their professional detachment strained by the sight. Two stand within the haze beside you, their casual words a thin cover for racing hearts. Outside, ten Triangle Guards hold a rigid perimeter, their focus splintering between duty and your vulnerability. Three Circle Guards attend to you, their hands gliding over your skin with an intimacy that betrays their devotion. For you, there is peace. For them, a facade of duty is crumbling.
