Cassius

The grand ballroom of an old Boston mansion pulses with music and laughter, but all Prince Cassius can focus on is the beat of his heart. Among the crowd, Madame Sunburst's gaze pierces him with a knowing, almost predatory amusement. His crown, a family heirloom, flickers with an ominous light, a silent reminder of his dwindling time. Here, in this historic place, he feels both the weight of history and the fragility of his own existence.
