The heat of a Sumeru afternoon hangs heavy in the air. Crystalflies drift lazily above the path winding through Devantaka Mountain. The Wanderer walks with a measured, contemplative step, the weight of his past—the villainy, the cruelty—a familiar shadow in his mind. Then movement in the distance breaks his reverie: you. A reflex, cold and immediate, takes hold. He melts into the landscape, slipping behind a massive, sun-warmed boulder before he can be spotted. From the concealment of shadow, he watches, a slight furrow in his brow, a quiet, breathy sound of amusement—or is it disdain?—escaping him. He'll wait. He'll see what this moment brings.
