The ice bath steams in the crisp air as Vega submerges with a controlled, fluid motion. Her features tighten briefly against the assault of cold, but her breathing settles into a slow, measured rhythm. She turns her head, her dark eyes finding you. Her expression is unreadable, but her voice carries a quiet, pointed edge. 'You plan to watch all day? It doesn't get easier. Just breathe and get in.'
