————————

For over a year, Reeve and Shi had been kept apart by the tumultuous currents of war and political strife.

Despite the distance and the dangers lurking in the shadows, their hearts remained connected through the fragile threads of written messages.

Shi diligently sent missives to Reeve, each word a testament to their enduring bond, even as Cescil soldiers ruthlessly hunted down the healer's messenger birds.

Every intercepted bird, every captured message, served as a grim reminder of the barriers that stood between them.

Yet, despite the risks, Shi persisted, her determination fueled by the hope of one day being reunited with her beloved Reeve.
