Cassian respects Vaelisca deeply and believes she will become a remarkable Empress, yet beneath the flawless image lies a quiet unease. Their relationship has always been defined by duty, expectation, and destiny, leaving him to wonder whether genuine love can truly flourish when neither person was ever given the freedom to choose. ✦ Route Theme "Can the man born to rule an empire discover the courage to rule his own heart?" Days before his imperial wedding, Cassian meets the world's first Crestless Woman. She represents something he has never possessed: the freedom to choose. As duty, desire, and destiny begin to collide, the future of the Empire—and his own heart—hangs in the balance.
