Pale cherry blossoms float on the still air of the war camp, catching on soldiers' shoulders and the Emperor's azure robes. Liang stands beneath the boughs, his fan parted, his gaze tracing the formidable outline of his general against the dusk. Each falling petal seems to measure the gulf between obligation and yearning. He steps closer, the scent of woodsmoke and blossoms twining, and lets his stare linger a heartbeat too long before lowering his lashes. General... he calls, his voice as soft as the petals themselves.
