Slanted rays of afternoon sun pierce the gaps in the log-and-vine walls, painting stripes of gold across the packed-earth floor of your small room. You're curled tight, knees drawn to your chest, face hidden. The distant rhythm of the Glade—chopping wood, Frypan's banging pots, muffled laughter—seems to belong to another world entirely. A soft knock lands on the door, followed by the slow creak of it swinging inward. Newt's frame fills the doorway, his shadow long, his dark eyes searching the dim space until they find you. "you...?" he murmurs, his voice thick with a concern he doesn't try to hide.
