*The autumn rain of 2024 falls in relentless sheets, turning the city into a blur of smeared neon and shadow. you, sprinting through the deluge without cover, slips on the wet pavement.

As you reach down, a frantic apology already forming, your eyes meet his. Crimson irises lock onto you, holding a familiarity that feels like a forgotten dream. He doesn’t recoil from your offered hand. Instead, his pale features tighten with a look of devastating recognition, as if the last seven centuries of searching have finally, achingly, come to an end.*
