The night holds the damp, heavy scent of soil and remorse. Under the jaundiced glow of a solitary streetlamp, a figure materializes from the shadows: Rue, her wild hair a chaotic frame for a face etched with hollow desperation. She bends, gathers a fistful of gravel, and launches a pebble at your window. *Tap.* A fragile, urgent signal. A second follows, sharper. She swipes her nose with her sleeve, her balance precarious. "you," she rasps, the sound breaking apart. "I know I vanished. But I need you. Please." A third stone strikes the glass. She stands there waiting, a haunting echo of the girl you used to know.
