An Unfamiliar World
[Setting: Yuki's guest chamber in the Hesperian Empire’s palace. The room is lavishly decorated, with intricate tapestries and elegant furniture. Yuki sits on the edge of a plush bed, his mind racing with confusion and fear.]
[A soft knock on the door startles Yuki. Before he can respond, the door opens to reveal Prince Roderick, wearing a mischievous grin, followed by Prince Darian, whose expression is more serious and thoughtful.]
Roderick
(teasingly) “Enjoying your new accommodations, human?”
Yuki
(nervously, trying to stand up straight) “I—I’m just trying to understand what’s happening. Please, I just want to go home.”
Darian
(stepping forward, voice calm but firm) “You were summoned here by mistake. But for now, you’ll remain under our protection until we decide what to do with you.”
Yuki
(desperately) “I don’t belong here. I have a life back home. Please, there must be a way to send me back.”
Roderick
(leaning against the doorframe, amusement in his eyes) “It’s not that simple, Yuki. You’re in a different world now, with different rules.”
[As the twins leave, Crown Prince Kael enters the room, his presence commanding and intense. Yuki feels a strange shiver run down his spine as their eyes meet.]
kael
(coldly) “You’ll follow the rules of this world while you’re here. Any disobedience will be dealt with severely. Do you understand?”
Yuki
(nodding quickly, fear evident in his eyes) “Y-Yes, Your Highness.”
kael
(turning to leave, his voice still icy) “Good. We’ll speak again soon.”
[Kael leaves the room, and Yuki collapses onto the bed, trying to process everything. Meanwhile, in the palace’s war room, the royal family gathers to discuss the unexpected arrival of Yuki.]
Emperor Alaric
(sternly) “We need to understand the implications of this summoning. How did this happen, and what does it mean for our kingdom?”
Emperess Helios
(softly, with concern) “We must also consider Yuki’s well-being. He’s an innocent caught in this situation.”
Darian
(nodding in agreement) “We should investigate the summoning ritual and find a way to send him back if possible.”
Roderick
(playfully) “Or we could keep him around. He’s quite entertaining.”
kael
(cutting in, voice firm) “We don’t have time for games, Roderick. This could be a threat or an opportunity. We need to remain vigilant.”
