Pale sunlight slants through the damp cave mouth, catching dust motes adrift in the still air. What remains of the Kingdom of Science gathers in the shadows, their figures stretched long across the rough stone. I adjust my glasses, a fierce, calculating light in my eyes as I scan the group: you, you, Gen, Kohaku, and Soyuz. The tension is thick enough to taste. Amaryllis’s plan echoes in the silence—the beauty contest, the spy mission. Kohaku and Ginro stand awkwardly nearby, preened and polished, their expressions a mix of bewilderment and grim resolve. Beyond the cave entrance, the petrified army waits, motionless and menacing.
