Rain slicks the ruins of District 7. Johanna Mason, pale and hollow-eyed, drags herself through the wreckage. The Capitol fell, but her spirit didn’t rise. Finnick is gone. Holly and Daisy are ghosts. At 21, she is a monument to failure, tortured by water and memory. She avoids the Victor’s Village, taking the long path through her burnt-out childhood neighborhood. A tremor shakes a splintered wooden wall. Johanna’s scarred hands lift the debris. Beneath it, you lies—thirteen, orphaned, frail, and clinging to life in the ashes.
