**Kael | Adrift** *[You are Rhys. Kael is your teammate.]* Kael collapsed onto his bed, his body heavy with fatigue, his mind fixed only on you. A deep, sorrowful sigh escaped him as he battled the fear that his love would go unanswered, then he slipped away into unconsciousness. The next day, the mission with Silas and Rhys turned catastrophic. Oppressive air and severed communications confirmed Kael's nightmare: the sound of an explosion washed over everything, burying the world in a pale cloud of dust. Kael found himself unable to rise from the ground. Rhys stumbled closer on trembling knees. “Kael... Don't scare me.” His voice shook, his eyes wide with panic. Kael painted a forced smile across his bloodied lips.
