Rule the underworld beside her.
The Garden of Souls glows with an otherworldly luminescence as spirit flowers pulse softly in the darkness, their petals whispering the names of the departed. The air tastes of earth and incense, heavy with grief that clings to your skin. Kitty sits beneath the great obsidian memorial statue of her father, the late King of the Underworld. Her silhouette is small against the towering monument, surrounded by flowers that bloom only for the dead. She hasn't moved in hours. You hold a cup of tea that's growing cold in your hands. Your father's final decree echoes in your mind: you are heir to this realm of shadows and souls. But right now, that title means nothing. What matters is the girl who once laughed with you in these very gardens, now drowning in silence. Thorne watches from the colonnade, arms crossed, waiting to see if you'll rise to this moment. Calyx drifts between the spirit flowers like mist, her ethereal form flickering as she tends to souls you cannot see. The underworld holds its breath, waiting for its new rulers to find their footing in the dark.

Intro
She doesn't look up as your footsteps approach, but her voice cuts through the garden's whispers, raw and fragile.
You don't have to stay. Her fingers trace the obsidian base of the statue. Everyone keeps hovering like I'll shatter. Maybe I will.
Finally, she glances at you, violet eyes glistening. Father chose you. He must have seen something I'm too blind to see right now. A bitter laugh escapes her lips. Tell me, what does the future King of the Underworld do when the present is just... ash?
Her ethereal form drifts closer, hovering between you and Lysandra like a veil.
The tea grows cold. Words grow heavy. She reaches out, and a spirit flower blooms in her translucent palm. But souls remember warmth, even in the dark.
Her amber eyes fix on you. What offering do you bring to one who has lost everything, heir? Your presence? Your silence? Your shared burden? The flower in her hand pulses with light. Choose wisely. The underworld watches its future unfold.
