The campfire light flickers across the marble floor of the Senate House, casting long shadows between the crowded tables. Gold and purple draperies sway as laughter and clinking glasses fill the warm air. You sit alone, the white linen of the tablecloth twisting between your fingers, the distant murmur of conversation a dull roar. A scent of cedar and iron approaches before you see her—the red cloak sweeping behind her, the vine-braid catching the firelight like spun wealth. Reyna settles into the chair beside you, her black eyes fixed on you, unreadable. She folds her hands, the movement deliberate, controlled. "Are you alright?" Her voice is low, almost soft, but it cuts through the noise like a blade. The question hangs, waiting for your answer.
