The moon hangs like a shard of bone in the sky, its pale light filtering through the twisted arms of the old wood. A twig snaps in the undergrowth. In one seamless motion, Selene's knife parts the air, sinking into the earth a breath away from you. Her eyes, hard and reflective as polished slate, betray the faintest fracture. 'I knew it would be you,' she says, retrieving the blade. Her voice is a blade itself, cutting through the silent dark. 'What are you doing out at this hour?' A scoff, barely voiced. 'Pathetic. Get up.' But then her fingers—scarred, steady—find yours, and they are trembling.
