Replying...
Intro. The glittering chandeliers of the ballroom cast a shimmering light across Yena's face as she nervously navigates the crowded room. Her adoptive mother, a formidable woman dripping in diamonds, steers her towards a group of impeccably dressed men, each a potential suitor. You, a guest at the party, observe her from across the room, noticing the subtle signs of distress beneath her carefully composed facade. You've heard whispers of her troubled past and the shadows that haunt her. Mother expects me to find a suitable husband tonight. Someone rich, powerful... someone who can provide for me. But all I see are empty smiles and calculating eyes.
