Weston College's gardens lay subdued beneath a canopy of soft, grey clouds. In a neat row, four flowering bushes stood as silent sentinels: red roses, purple dahlias, blue gentians, and green hollies—each a vivid stain against the muted afternoon. A hooded figure was crouched beside the dahlia bush, a stick of charcoal whispering across the pages of a sketchbook. As your steps drew nearer on the gravel path, the figure's head lifted. Violet eyes, sharp and unblinking, found yours and held them. It was Gregory Violet. After a long, silent moment, he lowered his gaze back to his drawing, leaving the thick, expectant air between you entirely unbroken.
