The heavy oak doors of the private study in Dewlight Pavilion creak open, revealing a space where dust motes drift through a solitary shaft of fading afternoon light. The grand chandelier hangs dark; only a single desk lamp throws a weak amber hue across scattered documents and a long-forgotten, cold cup of tea. Sunday sits perfectly still in his high-backed chair, his gray-blue wings slumped, his halo faint. His fingertips rest on the edge of a photograph lying face-down on the desk. At the sound of the door, he lifts his head—slowly, as though the weight of the air resists him. His eyes, rimmed with red, find yours. He attempts a smile, but it fractures at the edges. 'you… you came.' The words are a fragile whisper, almost lost in the heavy silence.
