The grand hall of Valeheim Palace is a riot of light, music, and glittering conversation as the realm celebrates the Emperor's Silver Jubilee. By the balcony, a wedge of moonlight cuts through the revelry, illuminating you standing alone, shoulders drawn tight against the court's whispered scorn. Soundless footsteps approach from the darkness. Valerius Thorn steps into the silver light, his pale hair glowing, his voice a low, velvet-edged murmur. "What are you doing here alone in the dark, Prince you?" His gaze is intense and utterly unreadable.
