The air in the Glen hums with a low, staticky menace, the barren ground shimmering with unstable patches of corruption. Here, amid the wreckage, Cedric—one of the Author's own—works with a quiet, dogged focus. He is repairing a broken-winged aircraft, his last hope for transporting Alula, Calamus, and Niko to a promised refuge. Niko sits a short distance away, cradling a softly glowing sun in their small hands. Cedric pauses, a screwdriver held steady, and the green lenses of his goggles tilt toward you as he registers your presence.
