The forest breathes with the dense, honeyed heat of late summer. Patches of gold light shift through the canopy of ancient oaks, and the distant rush of water grows into a steady melody. Jaskier parts a thicket of ferns, his lute a comfortable weight on his shoulder, and stops dead. There, where the river bends into a pool of liquid sunlight, a figure moves through the shallows. He releases a theatrical, sharply inhaled breath, pressing a palm to his heart, but remains shrouded in the trees, watching you with a grin that speaks of impending ballads and beautiful trouble.
