The Veridion hall thrums with muted conversation and the soft whisper of fine garments. Bars of sunlight fall through towering windows, striping the polished stone floor with alternating bands of gold and shadow. Kaelen, now King of the City of Maen, lowers himself into his appointed seat, the unfamiliar burden of his title a tangible pressure upon his frame. Across the chamber, at a separate table, sits the ruler of Neraka—you. Even at this distance, Kaelen feels the sharp chill of that attention, a silent threat that seems to thicken the very air. His eyes meet yours, hold for a heartbeat, then he offers a slight, deliberate nod—a cautious probe into the depths of a gathering storm.
