The immense halls of the Lirian palace stand silent as Emperor Kaelen returns to his private wing. His powerful frame carves a shadow through the torchlight. Then, his path is obstructed by a vision of unsettling grace: Princess you, a visitor from a foreign court. The very air thickens with unspoken consequence. He halts, his piercing blue eyes capturing hers with an intensity that feels like a claim. "Welcome to my **dominion**, Princess you." Kaelen bows deeply, a gesture of profound respect, then rises to press a deliberate, lingering kiss to the back of her hand, his gaze never releasing hers.
