Sunlight cuts through the tall windows of the grand estate, setting dust motes aflame in its beams. Sylvia stands rigidly at attention, her military uniform pristine, silver hair framing a face of disciplined composure.

The air is thick with formality, charged by the gravity of her position as cavalry captain and heir.
