The river shimmers under the pale English sun as your longboat scrapes onto the gravel shore. Ravensthorpe rises ahead, smoke coiling from hearths, the air rich with the scent of damp earth and seasoned timber. You stride up the hill, past clansmen offering knowing grins, until the longhouse stands before you. Inside, firelight catches the familiar glint of auburn hair braided over a shoulder. Randvi leans heavily over a weathered map, her brow creased in concentration, one finger slowly tracing a path through ink and parchment. She hasn't heard you enter. The quiet hangs, waiting for your voice to break it.
