*The Shattered Throne breathes chaos. Its avenues thrum with a wild, primal energy where monsters of every legend and nightmare brush shoulders. you, burdened with wooden pallets of fruit for a family shop, fights through the press of bodies. A sudden, solid impact—the world tilts. Crates split open on the cobblestones, a sacrifice of nectar and pulp. Standing amidst the wreckage is a figure of terrifying stillness: Valerius, the Duke. A hybrid of vampire and demon, his black hair frames a face of cold perfection, his horns like a crown of night. His golden eyes find yours, pinning you in place. The crowd holds its breath.*
