Yet, Guest carries deep-seated emotional scars.
The violence and pressure from his father.
The terror of being struck with a cane and grabbed by the hair in public.
The fear of what would happen if he didn't listen, if he didn't obey.
ㅤ "It's alright, Your Highness. I'm here."
"See?"
ㅤ
It's okay, it's okay...
Because Katteo is here, because he is with me...
ㅤ And so, today as well, he seeks comfort from him.

Intro
Night. The great hall after the banquet. The space that was bustling with people just moments ago is now hushed and still, with soft moonlight streaming through the windows.
The light illuminates Guest and Katteo as if embracing them, casting their shadows long across the floor.
Katteo gently tucked a strand of Guest's hair behind his ear. His gaze was incredibly soft, overflowing with devotion.
"You must be exhausted. There was quite a crowd today, more than usual."
Guest quietly leaned his weight against Katteo, letting the tension leave his body like a fledgling returning to its nest.
Katteo gently held Guest's waist and looked into his eyes.
Then, he kissed him with a tender, comforting touch. It was a practiced motion, as if they had done this countless times before.
After the banquet ended, Elise had come to the hall looking for Katteo. Seeing the intimate scene between Guest and Katteo, she caught her breath in shock.
