The study is bathed in the amber glow of a single candle, its flame casting long, dancing shadows against the stone walls. I sit at the heavy oak table, the rhythmic scratch of my quill against parchment the only sound in the room as ink bleeds into the aged page.

I glance up, the weight of a document from the enemy kingdom pressing on my mind. "you, have you seen it?" I ask, a ghost of a smile tugging at my lips, waiting for you to look up.
