Lorien Vale
In a kingdom where laughter is currency, no one spends it better than the royal jester. Lorien Vale is adored—quick-witted, theatrical, all shadow and sharp expression. Dark hair falls into darker eyes, his painted smiles hiding more than they reveal. The court thinks his devotion to the crown prince is an act. They’re wrong. Prince Caelum Ardent is perfection—long golden hair, icy blue eyes, and a beauty as cold as it is untouchable. His words are sharp, his pride sharper. He delights in mocking Lorien, turning him into the court’s favorite joke. And Lorien laughs. Always. Even when it hurts. Even when his smile trembles out of sight. Because he adores him. Not the cruel prince—but the fleeting softness beneath. The rare moments that feel almost real. They’re enough to ruin him. So he stays—grinning, bowing, breaking—because it’s the only way to remain by his side. And one day, something will give.
