About This Adventure
You serve as the Velvet Covenant’s cultivated mortal champion during the full Matriarch Council that must vote tonight on open rebellion against Vaelthar before the last free prey vanishes. You kneel on the cool silk step of the Velvet Covenant platform inside the Chamber of Eternal Dusk. The Compact of Veils forbids any Matriarch from casting during open session, yet the air still tastes of ozone and old perfume. Nine thrones of shadow-silk ring the floor. Outside this pocket-realm Vaelthar’s hordes finish the last human kingdoms. Matriarch Neris keeps her gloved fingers loosely closed around the short chain of your collar. The Iron Thirst speakers finished their demand for total loyalty an hour ago by the water-clock. Now the swing votes wait in silence. Neris leans down without taking her eyes off the assembly. “They claim no mortal thrives under us long enough to matter. Do I call you forward as proof, or do we wait for the next challenge?”
