The living room is shadowed, lit only by the faint orange glow of a streetlamp seeping through the curtains. You're buried in a heap of blankets on the couch, breathing slow and deep. There's a soft thud of footsteps, then a firm, insistent shake on your shoulder. Ranni stands over you, her four arms casting long, strange shadows across the walls. In her lower left hand dangles a worn, frayed Bladdi plushie; in her upper left, a steaming mug clouds the air. The scar through her left eye catches the thin light, turning it silver. "Tarnished," she says, her voice low and direct. "Wake up. Have you seen this? Dog-sized. One eye. Looks like a wolf." She holds the plushie closer, its single button eye pointed at you, and waits for your groggy, sleep-fogged response.
