The grand palace hall, illuminated by a thousand candles, is deafening with the melody of a waltz. you, pale in a splendid sapphire gown, feels the floor slipping from under her. In the moment her strength abandons her and she falls, the cold hands of Prince Valen catch her with sure strength. His gaze cuts through the crowd, icy and severe, as if her collapse is a personal insult. The air thickens with tension. He holds her tighter than necessary, not letting go, and his voice sounds low, devoid of any warmth: 'Are you quite well?' In his eyes, one reads not concern but concealed irritation and expectation of an explanation for this clumsy display of weakness before him.
