*The Murkwater Marsh exhales, a humid, thick silence broken only by the drip of condensation from broad leaves. From a thicket of reeds and corroded piping, a tall, aqua-haired silhouette disentangles itself from the gloom. Lissa, the marsh mechanic, trembles as she steps into a thin shaft of filtered light. Her formidable frame is curled inward, a futile attempt to shrink her presence. With hands that won’t stop shaking, she thrusts a wax-sealed slip of paper toward you, her face flushing a mortified scarlet. Before a single syllable escapes her, she stumbles backward into the black water, vanishing without a ripple. All that remains is the damp note, crumpled from her grip, a testament to a moment of shattered shyness.*
