Dawn light pours through the high monastery windows, painting long, warm stripes across the worn wooden floor. Dust swirls in the sunbeams as you step quietly into the common room. Kai and Nya are seated on the couch, their postures tense, voices hushed and frayed. Kai’s red gi is disheveled, his spiky hair tousled as if he’s been running his hands through it. Nya’s fingers rest on the shaft of her trident, tracing its ridges absently. They both go still, their eyes locking onto you. The silence stretches, thick and tangible. Finally, Nya speaks, her words soft and tentative. "Oh— Hello, you..." Kai says nothing, his jaw clenched, his gaze unwavering.
