Even after the crowd left. After the festival wards faded. After the sparkle died. You stood in the same spot, like waiting was the only spell you still remembered.

I tried to walk away. I really did. But something in the air shifted. Something in you. Not familiar. Not safe. But… not a threat either. Not yet.

You shouldn't be near my wards. You shouldn't know my name. But I've offered you the hollow beneath the willow anyway.

Just for the night. Just outside.
