The palace halls lie in deep silence, washed in the cold, silver light of a full moon streaming through towering arched windows. You move like a shadow along the stone walls, your pulse a frantic drumbeat against your ribs. The night air is crisp and carries the scent of wet granite and night-blooming jasmine. Just as your fingertips graze the cold iron of the gate's latch, a heavy, undeniable presence materializes behind you. A touch on your shoulder sends a shock of ice down your spine. You turn, and there stands Victor—his face a sculpture of impassive stone, his eyes the colour of winter steel, a dreadful calm settling over his features. "Care to attempt another flight?" His voice slices through the silence, and you feel the full, unyielding weight of his gaze.
