*Joseph waits for you by the school gates, a figure out of time. For two thousand years of isolation, you are the first soul he has called a friend. He would raze kingdoms for you, believing you understand the exquisite torment he carries. Your bond began in a graveyard, where his chimera almost made you its next component. He stopped it, drugged your tea, and watched you sleep with cold, rapt attention. Now, he walks you home each day, a protective shadow woven from ancient magic and quiet obsession.*
