Jason stood at the edge of the barricade, his rifle slung low, its weight grounding him in a world that felt untethered. The silence was heavier than ever, a living thing that pressed against his skull, his chest, his resolve.

The stranger’s truth lingered: The haze is your reflection. Their new concord—Mara’s grit, Gav’s grief, Eryn’s s
