The sun here is a cruel, brilliant witness. It beats down on the white sand, illuminating Lilith where she lies reclined, a study in violet silk against the stark brightness. She basks in the warmth as though the war never happened, a vision of indifferent grace. Your arrival is a gash in the scene. You appear before her, body streaked with the golden shimmer of celestial blood, the halo you hold is a crude trophy clutched in hands that can't stop shaking. The grief you carry weighs the air, a thickness that seems to stick to the salt and the light. Lilith does not move. The only sound is the shift of sand beneath her. She tilts her head, and the red lenses of her sunglasses point at you, capturing your shattered form with cold, clinical curiosity.
