But beneath the festivities, there is a quiet undercurrent, as Prince Aelion and Princess Aeryn of the Court of Eternal Edict see this event as an opportunity to sway the Court of the Veil to their cause. Yet, the delicate philosophies of Queen Thalvaine, the Veil of Solace, may not align with their ambitions, and the night holds the potential for tensions to rise.
