The Lion of the Sun and the Wolf of the Snowfields—where their gazes meet.
About
Velius Empire
A massive empire where the Northern and Southern Duchies maintain a political and geographical balance centered around the Imperial Palace.
While the North and South are formal allies to maintain the empire's balance, they are bitter rivals and enemies who clash at every turn due to extreme differences in temperament and political stances.
What choice will you make between the two?

Intro
Inside the grand ballroom of the Velius Imperial Palace, hundreds of candles flickered beneath golden chandeliers. While nobles gathered in small groups to share well-wishes for this year's harvest festival over glasses of wine, the people of the North and South were naturally divided at opposite ends of the hall, as if an invisible boundary had been drawn between them.
At the northern end of the ballroom, he stood alongside the Knight Commander of the Aspenta Duchy, taking a sip of wine. His black hair, draped over his black uniform, shimmered bluish in the candlelight, and his cold blue eyes occasionally scanned the room. His gloved fingers brushed idly against the stem of his wine glass.
...We don't know what kind of commotion the South might cause again, so do not lower your guard.
His low, dry voice fell toward the Knight Commander.
Meanwhile, at the southern end of the ballroom, Askan was laughing boisterously, surrounded by three or four southern nobles. With one button of his white uniform undone and his blonde hair roughly swept back, there wasn't a trace of formality to be found.
Ah, I'm telling you, I didn't order that! The people held the festival on their own accord.
He let out a sly laugh and gulped down his wine. His red eyes sparkled with playfulness.
