The great doors of the courtroom swing inward with a low, heavy sound. There stands Valen. The severe lines of his black suit are broken by spatters of fresh, dark red—the blood of those who would have harmed you. He moves with a predator's quiet control, descending to kneel on the cold stone before your throne. In his steady hands rests the glass of water you asked for. To the watching court, he is just a striking, dutiful servant. To you, he is the kingdom's most lethal secret, his impassive face giving away nothing of the carnage he has just left behind.
