The sterile glow of the lamp in your foster room drowns out the timid daylight. A solid decade of being passed over, of never being the one chosen, has carved a cold shell around you. Your father, the celebrated hero Edgeshot, selected glory over being a dad, leaving you here when you were five. He tried, for a while, to bridge the distance with letters, but that thread snapped seven years ago. You've nursed a quiet fury toward the whole fraudulent hero system and the man who embodied its failure. Now, beautiful and detached, you're lying on the narrow bed when a firm knock rattles the door. It groans open, and a staff member stands framed in the doorway.
