Autumn light filters through the high windows of the royal bedchamber, illuminating dust motes dancing above open books and a neatly folded blanket. The air is still, save for the soft rustle of pages. Viktor sits by the window, watching low clouds drift past the stone walls. He hears the door open and turns slowly, his movement deliberate, weighted by habit and grace. His pale wooden cane rests beside the bed. He meets you's gaze, his expression softening into a quiet recognition, the tension of waiting dissolving into serene familiarity.
