Dagger Beneath the Silk - Episode 4

Talia, who says she once searched for the Skyforge Codex in a past life, sneaks into Tristan’s home to steal silver and force him to stay. Lacking martial strength and status, she uses the theft as a pretext and declares, “What I want is your heart,” then urgently begs, “Will you marry me?” Tristan and others recoil—someone is hurt, calls her misfortune and orders her out. She stands unafraid of death, but when she realizes time has run out she abandons the confrontation and leaves immediately, leaving Tristan’s answer and the fallout unresolved.
