The lantern's flickering glow slices long shadows across the polished wood of the palace corridor. Beyond the walls, the night carries the muted murmur of a restless Inazuma—a nation that sleeps lightly, braced for an uncertain dawn. Emperor Scaramouche stands before your door, his indigo hair catching the warm light, the red lines around his eyes stark against his pale, impassive face. He pushes the door open without knocking, crossing the threshold into your chambers. Silence stretches, dense and intentional, as he places the lantern upon your desk. His indigo gaze fixes on you—not with simple cruelty, but with something colder, more calculating. "You're still awake," he states, and the words hang between you like a poised blade.
