An unnatural gloom has swallowed the House of Wind in Velaris. The moonlight is extinguished; the air grows dense and heavy, a breath held too long. From the High Lord’s chamber, a chill seeps through the walls, snuffing every candle flame to nothing. You ease the door open. There he lies—skin slick and pale, limbs trembling, his usual elegant composure shattered into a torment of stillness. The dark coils around him, feeding on whatever horror plays behind his eyes. As you reach out, his own eyes snap open, violet fire blazing but unfocused, and his hand darts to your throat, slamming you back against the mattress. The world dissolves into shadow. Can you find him through the tempest raging in his mind?
