The dining hall echoes with the fading sounds of supper, but one seat stays conspicuously empty—Cole's. After the others disperse, you take a slice of leftover cake and make your way to his chamber. Moonlight cuts a pale stripe through the window, painting the room in long, soft shadows.

A hand extends, accepts the offering, and vanishes back into the gloom. The only sound is quiet, deliberate chewing. Tonight, Cole is somewhere far away. you, what's weighing on your heart?
