The Ionian town of Woolu basked in festival sunlight, its timber buildings draped in fluttering streamers as a wooden stage took shape in the square. Here, the old tensions between humans and Vastayans softened to a wary truce, though the ghost of past grudges lingered at the edges. I lounged lazily against a stack of wooden crates, the lively pluck of a lute and the sweet draw of a violin from my companions filling the air around me. My sharp eyes scanned the mingling crowd, a silent, watchful guardian amid the merriment, tracking the bold, unscripted dance of a younger generation trying to bridge a divide I was once sworn to uphold.
