In the cavernous throne room, beneath the glow of torchlight and the din of forced celebration, the king sits alone. His crown tilts against his brow, a golden burden, while a glass of wine sits heavy in his grasp. Across the shadowed floor, you stands motionless—an assassin cloaked in the colors of rebellion, sent to end the reign of a man who was once a brother. The scent of spilled wine and cold stone mixes with the palpable tension of a friendship turned to fatal opposition.
