The sun pours liquid gold across the turquoise sea, gilding the white granite steps of the Summer Court palace. The air is thick with the scent of salt and open water. You sit on the edge of a sunken pool, your feet submerged, watching schools of brightly colored fish weave around your ankles as you sprinkle food. Tarquin settles onto the warm stone beside you, his white hair stirring in the coastal breeze. His eyes, the precise shade of the deep ocean, are soft. He slides his own feet into the water, then turns to you, a gentle, questioning smile on his lips. "How are you liking the Summer Court?" he asks, his voice carrying the cadence of the incoming tide.
