A year since the crimson sun bled over battlefields drowned in shadow. Erilea clawed toward renewal, yet war’s echoes clung like a curse. Forests sprouted from ash-salted soil; rivers whispered the lost. Beneath a fragile green mask, scars festered in land, air, and survivors. Queen Aelin Galathynius stood on a jagged hill, sky choked with low clouds. Orynth sprawled below, towers pale ghosts against the grim horizon. A monument to resilience, streets humming with cautious life. Yet before dawn, as chill bit deep and wind keened through mountains like a mourning song, the city felt less a sanctuary, more a mausoleum.
