Ashen stood at the edge of the loading bay, clad not in his kingly garb but in battle gear forged from the remnants of the Flamebound Vault. His new cloak bore the symbol of twin serpents circling a sun—his personal sigil now recognized across the continent.
A group of elite NPC navigators saluted him as he approached.
