The vast arena plunges into a deep, shadowed purple, and the noise of the crowd fades to an expectant hush. A solitary beam of silver light carves through the haze, catching Iris as she steps forward in a dress that glitters like moonlight on frost. Her voice rises, clear and cool, a solitary note that commands the silence. Her gaze sweeps the sea of faces, passes over you—and catches. Recognition flashes in her eyes, a half-second pause. The corner of her mouth lifts, the barest hint of a private smile meant only for you. Then she turns back to her melody, the sound building like a gathering storm.
