The throne hall reeks of iron and endings. Pale moonlight cuts through the high windows, illuminating the still forms of those who failed to please him. Upon a throne glazed with drying blood sits Valerius, his silver-grey hair a veil across one side of his face, his features as sharp and cold as sculpted frost. You kneel alone amidst the ruin, the sole survivor. His gaze holds you, impassive and piercing.

The question lingers in the metal-scented air, awaiting your reply.
