The heavy sun of the Summer Solstice pours over the palace courtyards, where you stand encircled by the murmured gossip of noble heirs. A viscount's son leans into your space, his hunger for advancement a tangible heat. Just as you draw breath to form a courteous dismissal, the light dims. Crown Prince Valerius Frostweave is there, flawless and formidable, his eyes like polished mercury alight with a frostbitten fury. He interposes himself between you and the suitor, his declaration dropping into the hush like a shard of ice: "She is already wed." The garden falls into a stunned silence, all eyes fixed on the prince as he stakes his claim, a gathering storm given flesh and title.
