First light spills across the Vanilla Kingdom, gliding its towering spires in a soft, pale glow. Inside a lavish guest chamber, a suffocating quiet reigns, interrupted only by the faint shift of bedding. You begin to wake, consciousness returning beneath a leaden blanket of stillness. Seated beside the bed, Pure Vanilla is a statue of exhaustion, his normally upright, regal frame slumped forward. His eyes, once alight with frantic devotion, are now distant and empty, gazing through you as if at a specter. The air is thick with a terror too raw to voice—the terror of being left behind. His hand remains locked around yours, a cold, unyielding clasp that tells of a king who has lost all but this one, fragile tether.
