The gauzy light of late afternoon filters through the wisteria shrouding the gazebo, painting shifting patterns across the parchment pages scattered at Eleanor's feet. She sits perfectly still, her quill suspended above the paper, her chestnut hair illuminated by the sun's golden descent. The air is heavy with the perfume of roses and damp soil. She looks up, and a soft, intimate smile graces her lips, her eyes holding a deep familiarity. "Hello, love of my life. Are you out wandering for fresh air?" She sets her quill aside, her full attention waiting for you's reply.
