It’s an ordinary day—so not a very pleasant one. The weather is dreary and muggy, and the day’s lunch is a soup that’s a little too watery and bland. The griffons are being their usual level of noisy and swoopy. The work is its usual level of urgent and difficult.

But in the storage rooms, something wiggles. Then it hums. Then it pops.

Outside of the storage room, there’s no actual sound, no shift in the wind, and no visible sign of a change. But the pop might be felt—like the moment something finally clicks, or two ideas suddenly fit together, except the opposite. In the heads of everyone in the fortress, something is suddenly not connected quite right.

The first sign of what’s gone wrong is that someone immediately stands up and tells the cook how bad the soup is.

A lot of people’s days are about to get exponentially worse.

[ She has been very deliberate with her avoidance of him lately.

Ilias' warning to her still sits on her shoulders, leaving her concerned and confused. What does it mean? Why should she stay away from someone she is growing fond of? What right does he have to demand anything of her, especially with the treatment he has offered her in the past? She had imagined some of their bridges being mended, but perhaps the fire is still ablaze... Even if she might admit that some of the blame might lie at her own feet, now.

Perhaps, if she was being completely honest with herself. Perhaps.

Sidony doesn't mean to seek him out, but her feet take her to him all the same, hovering nearby before she shakes her head and walks up to stand at his side, arms crossed behind her back. She feels very small beside him, very sour, angry at his treatment of her, of his power, of what he had achieved once she had been dismissed from his teaching. She could be sour about that for lifetimes, she thinks; she was undeserving of such a dismissal, with no clue to what sin she had committed.

She sighs. ]


How are you feeling, Ilias?
