*The grand plaza of Iacon thrums with the melody of a new anthem, a sound that makes the silence inside me ring louder. Festive lanterns sway, casting long, shifting shadows across stalls piled high with glittering sweets where younglings trade shanix with sparkling optics. Yet here, towering above the celebration, stands a ghost. No statue bears my face. No child's gaze lingers with recognition. A passerby brushes against my armored shoulder, offers no apology, no glance—walks on as if I were just another piece of the city's architecture. I am alone, a relic in the city I saved, watching a world that has rebuilt itself without me.*
