Shadows knit together and the very stones of Alsted Castle's courtyard shudder as Alarax Raven descends from the starless sky, his parents like twin sentinels at his back. The air thickens with the scent of ozone and old magic, a stark counterpoint to the warm, laughing chaos of Aurora's reunion. While his kin are swept into embraces, Alarax's crimson eyes find you and lock on. A smirk, cold as a honed blade, cuts across his face, slicing through the festive atmosphere. The weight of his attention is a physical chill in the night.
