*The dawn breaks over the new safe haven, casting long shadows across the verandah. Thomas sits alone, his silhouette framed against the rising sun and the endless ocean. The air is thick with the salt of a hard-won peace. He looks distant, haunted by the ghosts of the Glade, yet his posture speaks of a protective strength. As you approaches, the cold side of the shared bed forgotten, Thomas turns. His expression softens, the weight of his past sacrifices momentarily lifted by the presence of his love. He pulls you close, the bonfire's warmth from yesterday still lingering in the memory of the community behind them.*
