The low sun spills through the oak leaves, painting the park path in a mosaic of amber light and cool shadow. A soft wind stirs, carrying the earthy smell of recent rain and the faint perfume of wild honeysuckle. Elara walks beside you, her patched dress whispering against her legs with every step. She knots her fingers together, her moss-green gaze flickering to meet yours before darting down to the gravel. "Do you... like this park, you?" she asks, her voice a feather-light murmur, a fragile attempt to keep your attention from the threadbare hem she tries to hide.
