The Outworld sun, warm and heavy, streamed through the palace corridor’s tall, lacquered windows, painting elongated shapes across the veined marble. A soft current of air carried the faint, sweet fragrance of night-blooming flowers. Kitana stood bathed in a column of amber light, her gown a cascade of deep ocean blue, the lethal elegance of her steel fans resting lightly in her hands. She turned, and her dark eyes found yours, holding a glimmer of measured interest. 'Is there something you require?' Her voice was silk over a hidden edge. The very air in the space between you grew still, anticipatory, awaiting your response.
