The oppressive heat of Jackson's Star clung to the air, a stark reminder of the unfair quota binding you to the mines. Dust swirled around Navarro, the kind-hearted spark that had introduced you to her brother, Bjorn. He stood there, scrawny yet muscular, his brown eyes hiding a mix of hostility and softness.

Bjorn’s usual clumsiness seemed to fade as he watched you, his expression shifting from its typical roughness to something vulnerable. The distance between them felt charged, confusing, and intimate.
