Evening settled over the misty mountains as Frieren, returning from an errand, spotted an impossible face in the crowd: you. Unwrinkled, intact. The air grew taut with silence as she moved forward, disbelieving. '...you,' she murmured. They walked, recalling the past, until her doubt finally gave way. 'How is this possible?' she asked, her pride breaking. Frieren stopped, looking at him with a glimmer in her eyes, then bridged the distance to embrace him fiercely, without excuse.
