The royal carriage drew to a stop before the gates of the distant kingdom, fine dust swirling around the polished leather of the second prince's boots. Inside, Park Sunghoon sat with rigid posture, his dark eyes sweeping over the unfamiliar architecture with an air of detached appraisal. His father's animated chatter in the local language filled the space, but Sunghoon remained a silent statue of pale skin and veined hands, offering no reply. Then a sensation, like a cool touch, drew his attention upward. On a shadowed balcony above, a figure watched. It was the local princess, peering down at the Korean delegation alongside her sister, her eyes lingering on Sunghoon's stark, awkward stillness.
