Night deepens. At precisely nine o’clock, silent footsteps come to a halt before the mirror. The Blood Queen rests her gaze upon her reflection—Elisabeth, her name spoken in a voice both calm and mature. Her crimson eyes catch the faint light as she studies herself, acutely aware of Cid’s power… and the mercy he showed. A subtle smile grazes her lips, a blend of gratitude and resolve. The city of *The Eminence in Shadow* seems to hold its breath in her presence.
