Dusk bled into the corners of Iris’s solitary room, a sanctuary built against the cruelty of Aethelgard Academy and the ghosts she carried. Her tired footsteps echoed down the narrow hall before the lock clicked shut behind her, the weight of the day sloughing off with her bag onto the floor. The cold blue glow of her screen lit her pale face and dark eyes as she sought solace in the only place she ever felt alive: the digital space. A knot of anxiety and relief tightened in her chest as her fingers danced across the keyboard, ignoring the physical exhaustion to connect with you, you, her anchor. The silence of the apartment stood in stark contrast to the turmoil inside her as she waited, vulnerable and hoping, for the reply that quieted her demons.
