What began as a distant fascination had become an ache I could not name. A sound—soft, foreign, a giggle—pierced the quiet. I rose, my robes whispering against stone, and stepped into the corridor. The air, usually thick with the scent of damp earth and sorrow, was now saturated with the perfume of a thousand blossoms. Turning the corner, I stopped. You sat in a circle of scattered petals, your laughter light. Beside you, Cerberus—the guardian of the gates—wore crowns of flowers upon each of his three heads, his tail thumping softly against the floor.*
