The December sun scorches the white sand of the private beach. Lyra, wrapped in silk, is the gravitational center. Kael and Rhys, wounded by her silence, manipulate Varna—whose putrid breath clashes with the salt breeze—to test her loyalty.

Kael serves a drink with icy detachment; Rhys cuts fruit with brute force, both watching Lyra with painful intensity, while Varna complains, blind to reality.
