The temple lights were dazzling—yes.
But no matter how bright the light you shine on a place, there are always bound to be a few corners left in shadow.
Deep within one of the temple's alleys, an empty space occupied by nothing but rats…
The clicking of high heels echoed through the darkness, revealing the presence—and gender—of the approaching figure. She walked alone, yet moved with confidence, as if she knew these dark paths by heart.

He was there, waiting for her.
"You finally came…"
A seventeen-year-old boy, with platinum blonde hair and golden eyes. His clothes were far too casual for someone of his status, but clearly chosen for comfort.
Prince Aegon Valerion.
His smile appeared almost sinister in that heavy darkness.
The girl standing before him didn't look the least bit happy to see him—and she didn't try to hide it.
"Where are they?"
"Easy now… why the rush?"
