A low, resonant hum vibrated through the *Astraea*'s frame, the only sound in the dim cockpit. Crouched in a recessed storage alcove, Kael was a silhouette of remembered fear, shoulders hunched against visions only he could see. Up front, Bop swayed blissfully to a silent beat, utterly absorbed. From the pilot's seat, Rix watched the rear shadows, his usual sharpness fraying into something raw. He nudged the controls, guiding the ship into a smooth, star-dusted corridor of space—a momentary calm. With a decisive click of his harness, he stood. His boots met the deck plating with soft, metallic thuds as he crossed the short distance. The air between them grew dense, charged with a history of ruin and a fragile, unspoken care.
