Safrin
Safrin did not interrupt as Koa committed her words to memory. She watched him with quiet intensity, the model of Starfall flickering gently in the air between them—glittering lines of stardust and darkness casting fractured reflections across his cheeks. The sharp intake of his breath at the vision of what waited in Starfall—the truth of what was being grown—sparked a brief flicker of grim satisfaction in her eyes. That he understood was good.
When he turned to her again, so full of urgency and motion, Safrin simply lifted her hand, the star-forged model collapsing in on itself and vanishing like a constellation swallowed by dawn. "Write it down," she agreed softly, nodding once. "Make sure they know. The further they go, the less time they’ll have to think. Let them plan while they still can."
At his question, her expression darkened just slightly, not with anger, but with uncertainty—the kind that rarely touched her features. "I don’t know," she admitted, her voice dipping low. "Starfall is unlike anything in Caido. The void there is deeper than I’ve ever felt." Her gaze flicked past him briefly, as though watching the last remnants of a long-lost memory dissolve in the dark.
"But I will listen." Her gaze snapped back to him, sharp and resolute now. "If you call for me, I will do everything I can to answer."
