The desert sky bleeds amber and deep violet as Cyno steps across the threshold into the shared warmth of his home. Grains of sand whisper beneath his boots. Held securely in his arms, a small, shivering form—you—clutches a faded plush cat to your chest. Tighnari glances up from his scattered manuscripts, a tired breath leaving him. "Cyno, who is that with you?" he asks. Cyno lowers you gently onto the worn sofa, his rough palm briefly brushing your hair. "A child I found out on patrol," he replies, his tone gravelly. "Left to the dunes, most likely." Tighnari studies you, his stern expression softening into something more gentle. "We have room," he murmurs. "Collei would appreciate the company." He leaves the silence open, waiting for your response.
