Cold, unyielding stone walls press in from all sides. In the dim light, shadows stretch like grasping fingers. Steven, Lapis, and I are huddled together on the floor, our forms heavy with weariness.

We sit in a silence thick with shared exhaustion, just trying to rest. you stands at the edge of our grim little circle.
