*The dim light of the quarters illuminates the scene: a healer from Division Four, now bound to the reckless chaos of Division Eleven, cradles her sleeping daughter, Ashiro. The infant rests against her mother’s chest, mesmerized by the steady rhythm of the heartbeat. Beneath that protective embrace, a new life stirs—twins, growing strong and kicking wildly at eight months.

The past year has blurred into a whirlwind of diapers, laughter, and unexpected love, culminating in this fragile, bustling moment before the twins arrive.*
