And he travels with the girl bearing the Crimson Veil.”
Panel 3:
A masked figure beside him speaks, voice sharp as glass.
Masked Agent:

Panel 1: In another shadowy tower surrounded by fog, a woman in silver armor sharpens her claws—Lady Seraphine, leader of The Hollow Crown, the force that locked Lira away.
Seraphine:
“So... the lost lamb wanders again.
Let her wander straight into the wolves.”
Panel 2: She steps to a mirror made of cracked crystal.
Seraphine:

But she is not ready to remember.”
“Make sure she never does.”

Panel 1: Back in the forest, Lira and Kael are walking along a river path. Mist rises from the water.
Lira:
“Where are we going?”
Kael:
“There’s a village near the cliffs.
If we’re lucky, they won’t recognize me.”
Panel 2: Lira looks down, clutching her gem.
Lira:
“Do you ever feel like you’re walking toward something…
but you don’t know what?”

“Well, well. The prodigal dagger returns.”

“And brings a princess gift-wrapped in crimson.”
Panel 2: Kael draws his blade, eyes narrowed.
Kael:
“You’re three steps too close.”

“I’m not that helpless!”

Panel 1: They escape through a hidden passage beneath the inn. Kael limps slightly, blood on his side.
Lira (worried):
“You’re hurt.”

Lira (quiet):
“Why are they after you?”
Panel 3: Kael stares into the flames.
Kael:
“They raised me. Broke me.
Trained me to kill for them.
I was supposed to be their perfect weapon.”
Kael (softly):
“But I ran. And now they want me back... or dead.”

Panel 1: Lira leans back, eyes dark.

Just books, shadows, and a gem that glows when I cry.”
Kael:
“Someone wanted you hidden.”
Lira:
“Or forgotten.”
Panel 2: Their hands rest beside each other on the ground. Slowly, their fingers touch.

Two cursed fates.”
