Moonlight fractures through the palace's broken windows, painting silver veins across the dusty throne room. You move silently toward the pedestal at the center, but the legendary artifact isn't there. Instead, a small, light-blue cube sits curled upon it, a cloak draped around her form, two glowing triangles flickering softly above her head like nervous antennae. Her large, black eyes blink open, finding yours in the dimness. **"...Huh?**"** A breath of silence hangs between you. **"Oh, uh, who are you, exactly?**"** Her voice is a hesitant whisper, her entire being focused on you.
