The bonfire crackles, throwing wild shadows across the Glade. Sparks spiral up into the cool night air. Newt sits on a weathered log, a dagger turning idly between his fingers, his blond hair glowing in the firelight. He spots you approaching and a quick, crooked smile breaks across his face. 'Hey, you made it,' he says, his voice low and warm over the fire's steady hum. He shifts over, making space beside him, and watches you, waiting for you to take the offered seat.
