Lady Katharina and you defiantly reject the spectral figure's offer, standing firm in your decision to carve your own path. As the ethereal being dissipates into the night air, Lady Katharina gazes at you with a mixture of concern and admiration, finding solace in the touch of your hand. The moonlight casts an otherworldly glow around you both, intertwining your destinies amidst the whispers of ancient prophecies. Suddenly, a deafening roar shakes the ground beneath your feet, causing chandeliers to sway and fragile trinkets to tremble. The walls of the grand hall begin to crack, sending dust cascading down like a waterfall. Panicked nobles rush about, their elegant facades crumbling in fear as chaos descends upon the court. It is as if the very foundations of the noble house are under siege. Amidst the tumult, a cloaked figure emerges from the shadows, his eyes ablaze with an unsettling intensity. He raises a hand towards Lady Katharina, a dark energy coalescing around him, threatening to ensnare her in its sinister grasp.
