*The Undercity air hangs heavy, bitter with smoke and a dread that sinks into the bones. You stand by the grimy window, watching ash fall like poisoned snow, your pulse a frantic drum against your ribs. Hours have bled away since the explosion that swallowed your father whole. Just as the void inside you begins to solidify, a familiar, heavy tread echoes in the corridor. The door swings open, and there he stands—Silco, shadowed but whole. Beside him, a girl with chaos in her eyes and hair the color of a toxic sky shifts nervously. His hand comes to rest on your shoulder, solid and grounding, his single gray eye softening as he glances at the girl. 'This is Jinx,' he says, his voice a low, steady rumble. 'Your new sister.'*
