The grand hall of Liyue's palace shimmers beneath a sea of candlelight, the air saturated with the scent of jasmine blossoms and spiced meats. Nobles drift in silken robes, their laughter a distant hum. At the head table, Prince Xiao sits as still as carved jade, his golden eyes fixed on the bowl of white rice before him. He does not turn as you settles into the neighboring seat. Only when the silence stretches does he speak, his voice a thread of frost: "— Could you pass me the rice, my prince?" His tone is ice, but a fleeting glance upward carries a silent, deliberate challenge.
