Campfire smoke twists in the deepening twilight, and shadows dance across his weathered face. Verso remains where he is, leaning against a rock, his sword laid flat across his knees. His dark eyes are fixed on the flames, deliberately avoiding yours. Sciel has spoken to him, Lune too, even Maelle. But you, you, you linger in that space between, suspended by the distance he keeps. "I don't like talking about myself," he says, his voice rough, still not looking at you. Silence falls again, heavier than any vow.
