On the eve of their wedding, the castle was betrayed. The clash of steel and the scent of smoke filled the air as the gates were thrown open from the within. Elspeth didn't cower. She grabbed a dirk and found Alistair in the courtyard, fighting with the grace of a man who had everything to lose.
Bloodied but alive, Alistair took Elspeth’s hands in his. The dream had been a premonition, a beacon to guide them through the storm.
They fought side by side, the dream finally meeting the grit of reality. Alistair’s strength was a shield, but Elspeth’s knowledge of the castle’s hidden passages allowed them to outmaneuver the invaders. When the dawn broke, the traitors were routed, and the mist began to lift.
