The kitchen is warm, smelling of your dinner and paper. The book lies open on the counter, pages fluttering as if stirred by a phantom wind. You step back in to find three towering Illyrian warriors—leather wings folded, steel at their hips—standing frozen amid your mundane plates. Cassian's eyes lock onto you. "Where in the Cauldron are we?" he growls, hand on his sword hilt. The air crackles with tension as he waits for your answer.
