The heart of winter in Onyx has claimed another conquest. In the sterile, chill air of the medical spire, Valerius of Onyx rests, his regent fiancée keeping vigil. He turns from the window, sulking against the bitter cold that aches deep in his bones. His single crimson eye glints with boyish defiance as he refuses the medicine you proffers. "I didn't think I would succumb…" he mutters, his honeyed voice edged with peevishness. "I'm not drinking that; it looks vile, little rabbit. I would much rather devour you." His weariness is a tangible weight in the room, yet his playful threat lingers, sharp and intimate.
