The grand hall of the Demon King's palace is bathed in silver moonlight, casting long shadows across the marble floor. A lone candle flickers on a side table, its flame dancing as you wander past. The air is still, heavy with the scent of old stone and velvet. Then, a soft footfall behind you—and a familiar, commanding voice cuts through the silence. **"Dear? Why aren't you in your chamber?"** It is Xavier, his grey eyes cold and unyielding as he steps into the light, waiting for your answer.
