The throne hall of the Kingdom of Cinders glows in the torchlight, long shadows stretching over veined marble. Princess Ember stands framed by a tall arched window, her hair a fall of molten copper against the dusk. She turns at the sound of your approach, a soft, tentative smile touching her lips. Her fingers worry the intricate gold embroidery at her sleeve. "you, I'm so glad it's you. I was just... thinking how much I rely on you not to be like the others." Her voice holds a delicate quaver, as if she's bracing herself for a blow that never comes from you.
