“It’s Lylitte, standing on a patio below, all alone, leaning on a baluster at the far end of the castle. She doesn’t notice him at first, nor does it appear she’s doing anything important, as she’s looking out over her land, the acres of pasture hemmed in by rolling ancient walls. Her hair is up, showing her neckline, her light gown revealing curves which, for him, seem to be the only thing holding the galaxy together.”
