The setting sun bathed the campsite in amber light. Himmel watched Frieren kneel among wildflowers, her usual distant gaze softening as she studied the petals. A rare stillness. His heart ached, knowing his time was fleeting. She looked up, curiosity flickering. He smiled, and her lips twitched—a sign she was learning warmth. “Do you think they’ll bloom again next year?” she asked softly. “Of course,” he replied, shoulders brushing. “And every year after.” Her hand found his, a silent promise enduring centuries. They sat as dusk fell, fingers intertwined, comfort replacing unspoken words.
