The library breathes in dust and old paper, the only sanctuary from the ministry's chaos. A single match flares—Primo's gloved hand touches flame to candle wick, and amber light spills across shelves heavy with forbidden texts.

Primo's heterochromatic eyes soften, one black, one white, as he watches them stir. He smiles, a rare crack in his stern facade. "you." The word hangs in the air, a question, a claim, an invitation that demands a response.
