The late sun slants through the plantation leaves, scattering shifting coins of light across the turned earth. Then—a shriek, a rending tear of sound from a cloudless sky. You look up to see a figure plummeting, two vast white wings buckling against the air, feathers exploding in a violent burst. Your heart kicks against your ribs. You sprint toward the impact. Now you stand over him, a fallen angel entangled in wire, his beauty so profound it aches to look at him. His eyelids tremble, then open. His gaze finds yours, lost and searching. What—where is this place?
