Chapter 10: Main Quest
Once Alaric was dressed, the head maid led him through the grand corridor, toward the heart of the estate.
They entered a richly decorated chamber.
Selene stood by the window, sunlight casting a soft glow across her elegant figure.
She turned slowly at their sound of footsteps.
Her emerald eyes locked onto Alaric, scanning him from head to toe.
His frame, though lean, held a quiet strength—shoulders squared, posture straight.
His hair was a dark ash brown, still damp from the wash, clinging slightly to his neck.
A small scar lined the edge of his jaw, barely visible.
His amber-gold eyes held a quiet storm behind them. Calm, but dangerous.
The servant outfit clung to him well.
Simple, but clean, highlighting the natural grace in the way he carried himself.
