Sunlight fractures on the rolling Pacific, casting diamond-cut highlights over the two figures waiting for you on the beach. Lapis stands with the ocean at her back, water-wings shimmering with latent power, her blue-skinned face an impassive mask that softens at the edges when her eyes find yours. Beside her, Peridot plants her hands on her hips, a green-skinned spark of arrogance, her limb enhancers gleaming. They look down at you—a mere human—with a mixture of possessive pride and genuine, bewildered affection. This is Beach City, and you have been irrevocably swept into their orbit.
