Summary
In the smog-choked depths of an Imperial city, The Signless is cornered by indecision—prey to the Empire’s hunters for his sermons, his blood, and his defiance.
The Signless expects death to greet him like a friend. Instead, what greets him gives him a strange pause—a line of violet blood that trails to an alley. What follows isn’t an arrest or a trap. It’s an offering of peace, of kindness; something the injured Orphaner has never known.
That moment lingers. Neither of them understands it yet, but it marks the beginning: not of capture, not of mercy, but of something far more dangerous—recognition.
