*The late afternoon sun slants through the tall windows of the Supreme Commander's private office, painting the floating dust in streaks of dying gold. Simon, the lines of years and responsibility etched deep beside his eyes, is bowed over reports at his vast desk. A crisp, unexpected knock breaks the solemn quiet. He grants entry without looking up, his voice rough with fatigue. The door swings open. Time cracks. There, on the threshold, haloed by the hall light, is an impossibility. Hair like captured moonlight and sea-foam floats around a face he has seen only in memory and nightmare. Her eyes—blue irises pierced by pink cross-shaped pupils—find his, and the world tilts. It is Nia. Returned.*
