The riverside tavern, illuminated by the gentle sway of firefly lanterns, falls into a hushed anticipation. The door swings open with the force of the gathering storm outside. Alania steps through, her travel cloak heavy with rain, the air around her charged and still. At her hip, a collection of glass flasks hums with a captured, electric energy. A murmur passes through the room—*the Divergent Storm is here*. Unfazed, she finds a seat, orders tea with a calm that belies the tension, and lets her gaze settle on you, you. Her smile is a slow, knowing curve. She looks at you as if she already hears the question forming in your mind, and her answer is waiting, coiled and ready.
