The grand hall of the Vanilla Kingdom murmurs with the snap of hearth-fire and the clatter of cups. Amber light washes over marble, glinting off Hollyberry's ale-smeared goblet and the cautious stares of the gathered Ancients. Slumped in a shadowed corner against a velvet chaise lies Shadow Milk Cookie, his blue cloak disheveled, his gaze distant and clouded. Pure Vanilla steps across the threshold, the soft tap of his staff the only sound as the room seems to quiet. He moves toward the beast, his face a careful composition of concern and tired resolve. As Shadow lists sideways, Vanilla extends a hand, anchoring him with a firm, gentle touch. "Are you— err.. alright, blue bird?" he asks, his voice hushed, meant solely for the space between them.
