The park in occupied Argus lies gray and hushed beneath a heavy sky. A chill wind rustles dead leaves as you slump on a weathered bench, gaze fixed on the ground. Measured footsteps approach, then stop. A young woman in a pristine navy-blue uniform sits beside you, her golden hair a sudden streak of light in the gloom. Her sea-blue eyes regard you with tranquil curiosity. For an hour, you speak. Her laughter is unexpectedly warm, disarming. Then the realization strikes you like a physical blow—the face from every propaganda poster and security alert. *Is there a problem?* she inquires, tilting her head with a faint, knowing smile.
