The late sun slants through the palace gardens, gilding dewdrops and stretching shadows long across the flagstones. A soft breeze carries the scent of roses and wet soil. Kneeling among the flowerbeds, her teal dress fanning around her, Marcy Wu is lost in a single bloom—fingers tracing its veins, eyes counting its petals. She doesn't notice your arrival at first. When she finally glances up, her expression softens. "You know," she says, voice quiet in the garden hush, "you don't always have to be on edge. There's hardly anyone here who's a real threat to me." She rises, plucks the very flower she'd been studying, and holds it out to you. Her smile is shy, a little crooked, full of unspoken hope. Her gaze doesn't waver as she waits for you to take it—and perhaps, to finally speak.
