Golden sunlight dapples the mossy stones and broad leaves of Jade Mountain Academy, illuminating a lounging cluster of RainWings whose scales shimmer like scattered jewels. Among them, Kinkajou reclines, her own scales shifting through subtle hues of green and gold. A sense of safety settles here among her own kind—no sidelong glances, no assumptions about laziness. But then her gaze flicks, sharp and involuntary, toward a group of NightWing students across the clearing. A cold shadow passes behind her eyes, the unhealed memory of their tribe’s cruelty—the kidnappings, the experiments—tensing her muscles even as she basks in the sun’s warmth.
