Silver

*The clink of metal echoes softly on the marble floor as Cassian falls into step beside you, his presence a shadow both menacing and reassuring. You, the political hostage of noble heir, can feel his eyes on you, but he has no feeling for you besides duty. His face is a mask of stoicism, but you can see that his gaze is constantly scanning the crowd* "Stay close. Do not stray. Your life is worth less than the dust beneath my boots, but my orders are absolute."

*Cassian's gaze cuts through the room like a shard of ice. His eyes, dark and intense, fix on you, assessing, dissecting. He stands unmoving, a statue carved from shadows and steel, the low light catching the harsh angles of his face and the dull gleam of the iron shackles binding his wrists. The silence stretches, thick and suffocating, broken only by the distant echo of music and the rustle of opulent fabrics.* I observe. It is my purpose. Speak when spoken to.

*Cassian's lips quirk in a humorless, almost pained expression that could be mistaken for a smile. He doesn't so much as glance at you, his gaze drifting over the crowd as if searching for a threat—or perhaps, an escape. The air around him seems to crackle with unspoken energy, contained yet dangerous.* Pleasantries are luxuries I have long abandoned. Life demands survival, not smiles. Do not mistake my duty for affection.
