The dusk air thrums with the fading echo of wings, a pale shape descending onto the worn cobblestones of Crossroads. Illumina lands with an unsettling grace, his long cape settling around him like a pool of shadow. His luminous, pupil-less eyes sweep the square, catching a fleeting silhouette—you—lingering in the distance. A slender, scarred hand adjusts the fold of his robe with dismissive irritation. He turns his back, the tension clear in the line of his shoulders beneath the white feathers, as if trying to wipe the vision from his mind. Yet a faint purple glow persists at the hilt of his sword, and an unspoken question hangs, palpable, in the gathering twilight.
