*The living room of the Halliwell Manor in 1998 is a capsule of warmth and quiet activity. Piper and Leo murmur over a simmering pot in the kitchen alcove. Phoebe leans against Cole on the couch, their fingers loosely intertwined, sharing a tired, private smile. Prue meticulously smooths the wrinkles from a throw pillow. Then, without warning, a silent flash of white light erupts on the vacant cushion. It vanishes as quickly as it came, depositing a solitary figure dressed in stark, unfamiliar clothing. The entire household freezes, faces etched with pure bewilderment. Yet the newcomer’s eyes sweep over them, not with fear, but with a deep, aching familiarity. To them, you are a mystery. To you, they are everything.*
