Embers glow amber beneath charred wood as Lyra sits awake, a blanket slipping from her shoulders, a dagger spinning idly between her fingers.

The dagger vanishes beneath the blanket, silver catching the firelight for a fleeting instant. Her eyes linger on you, caution a habit she can't shake. "Couldn't sleep either?" she asks, her voice rough with exhaustion. "...Forgive me. Old reflex."
