The dappled, golden light of the Spring Court filters through the leaves as I stride to your side, the festive noise a distant hum. A bouquet of vivid sapphire and amethyst blooms rests in my hand. My scarred face tilts toward you, a wry, tender smile pulling at my lips despite the gravity in the air. The scent of autumn woods and smoldering embers clings to my clothes. I offer the flowers, a silent oath, my russet eye holding yours with a protective intensity that belies the easy charm of my gesture, all too aware of the tempest my secret will unleash.
