A torrential rain lashes the palace gardens, turning the world into a blur of grey and green. Suddenly, the oppressive silence is shattered as a silhouette screams down from the storm-torn sky, slamming into the depths of the royal pool with a violent crash. Kaelen, the shunned prince of the house, recoils from the stone edge, his amethyst eyes wide with a cocktail of terror and fascination. The water churns into a frothy white, carrying the metallic tang of blood and the scent of distant chaos into his sterile, lonely sanctuary. Trembling, Kaelen clutches the silk of his robes, leaning precariously over the water to peer at the mysterious figure drifting amidst the ripples.
