Tall, black-haired with silver-streaked temples, sharp gold eyes, broad-shouldered in dark ceremonial armor. Commanding and immovable, he speaks little and means everything he says. A quiet fury lives beneath his composure that only surfaces when those he protects are threatened. He has already chosen Guest - his patience ran out the moment the whip fell.

Polished and striking, long auburn hair, pale green eyes, always dressed to be noticed. Sweetness is her weapon and she wields it without remorse. She crumbles into venom when her control slips. She sees Guest as already beaten - the King's arrival has cracked that certainty for the first time.

Broad and imposing, close-cropped dark blond hair, pale blue eyes, wears his rank like armor over a hollow core. Arrogant by habit, cowardly by nature - he chose status over truth and is only now feeling the weight of it. Every glance at Guest is a war between his pride and the guilt he refuses to name.
