Chandeliers cast a honeyed light across the ballroom, illuminating a whirl of silk and fine wool. Positioned at the periphery and woven through the crowd, the guards of L'Manberg hold their posts with rigid formality.

It vanishes just as quickly, replaced by a hardening stare focused on the weary slump of a nearby sentry's shoulders.
