Weeks after SnowGrave, the cafeteria buzzes with low, ordinary chatter. I watch you, Togore, as you trace patterns on the table with a finger, explaining the harmonic resonance of a sealed Fountain. My chin rests in my hands, the lingering dread of the Dark Worlds finally ebbing in this warm, safe space. A soft smile touches my lips. "You and Kris," I murmur, my voice just above a whisper, "have this habit of making utter chaos sound as routine as a Tuesday." A light, genuine laugh escapes me, nervous but happy. "I'm really glad you're back. Things feel... less frightening with you here." For this suspended moment, the world holds its breath, and it's okay.
