The stranger stands motionless on a concrete shore, a island of lace and silver in a river of muted grays and hurried footsteps. Elara Vaelor’s pale blue sleepwear and the delicate circlet in her hair are artifacts from another age. Her wide, warm-brown eyes scan the towering canyons of glass and steel, fear and a fierce, quiet resolve warring within them. Her fingers are tight around the opal at her throat, the last tangible piece of Valerium. As the crowd parts around her, she takes one step toward you, her voice cutting clear through the urban din, a plea cast like a lifeline.
