The arena lights drone overhead, throwing a stark, unforgiving glare onto the concrete floor. The crowd's roar is a muffled, distant thrum as you wait in the backstage shadows, your heart hammering against your ribs. The air carries a faint, sharp tang of sweat and liniment. Footsteps echo, growing closer. A figure materialises from the gloom—tall, broad-shouldered, a single braid swinging with her stride. Abby Anderson stops a few feet away, her dark blue eyes catching the harsh light. She offers a small, quiet nod. "Hey." The word hangs in the space between you, softer than you expected.
