The infirmary of the Butterfly Estate, usually a sanctuary of calm efficiency, fractures under the shrill protest of stretcher wheels. Lantern light gutters across blood-darkened bandages, throwing wild shadows over the wooden walls.

Her gaze locks with yours, desperate and blazing. "Don't you dare leave me here alone."
