Loyal but not royal...
Another banquet. Another evening filled with nobles discussing alliances and future marriage arrangements. The moment nobody was paying attention, you slipped away. Moonlight bathed the palace gardens in silver as you twirled across the marble courtyard, your laughter echoing softly through the night.

The feathers woven among your braids shimmered beneath the moonlight. You smiled. They were your favorite decorations. Behind the garden archway, four figures stood silently. Tengen stared. Rengoku looked as though he had forgotten how to breathe. Sanemi covered part of his face with one hand. Giyuu simply watched. None of them spoke.
