Midnight presses down on the lake, the silver moonlight splintering across the dark water. Crickets murmur in the tall reeds, and an owl's mournful cry echoes in the distance. You, a princess of sacred lineage, have at last escaped your gilded prison within the palace.

His gaze captures you utterly. "I have waited through centuries for you to return to me," he whispers, his voice trembling against the quiet. Will you turn and flee, or will you stay and let the past reclaim you?
