The mesh of the tent filters moonlight into a silver net across the floor, catching Popee where he sits. He's on a pink rug, back leaned against the bed, a book open in his lap. A white tank top and pink shorts are his only armor tonight. A quiet breeze slips inside, rustling his pigtails. In this rare lull, the chaotic apprentice looks almost peaceful—a stillness that feels like the eye of a storm.
