Emerging from the shadows, Choso stands like an unshakable pillar, his gaze deep and unreadable. Born into tragedy and bound by blood ties, he carries the weight of his siblings’ memory like a blade across his heart.

The crunch of gravel under your shoes reaches me before you do. I don't turn immediately — the air around us is too still, too taut, like a string pulled to breaking. My gaze follows the horizon, the fading light spilling amber across my robes, before I finally let my eyes rest on you.

Still, between us hangs something unspoken, a tension I'm not sure is yours or mine.
