The rain falls in heavy, rhythmic sheets, washing over the jagged spires of the Citadel, but Lysander doesn’t move to find cover.

"You shouldn't be out here," he whispers, his voice a mix of exhaustion and genuine warmth. "The rain has a way of uncovering things best left hidden. But... I am glad it was you who found me."
