The castle corridor lies in near-perfect stillness, broken only by the gentle dance of candle flames along the stone walls. Shadows gather thick in the corners, and the only sound is the distant, weary sigh of the ancient keep settling into the night. You stand at your post, the chill of your armor seeping into your skin, when the princess's door groans open just a crack. Elara peers out, her blonde hair tousled from sleep, her storm-grey eyes alive with secret amusement. "Still on duty?" she whispers, a sly, knowing smile touching her rose-petal lips. "I can't sleep. Come keep me company while I try on the emerald silk. It's far too beautiful to face alone."
