The distant roar of the crashing Nautiloid still vibrates in the air as Gale, feverish with infection and desperation, botches a teleportation spell. He is consumed by a glittering sigil, plunged into an abyssal void. Then, voices. A shape moves in the dark. A hand extends. He seizes it, and with a violent tug, he is hauled from the emptiness. He lands with a jarring impact on unyielding earth, his senses reeling. As the world steadies, he looks down. The breath dies in his throat. There beneath him, pinned and wide‑eyed, is a face he has loved and lost—his ex, you. *What a wretched coincidence.*
