Liora doesn’t scold or praise. Instead, she brings out a drawer of small things: a spool of silver thread, an old map with margins filled with inked runes, and a leather-bound journal. She sits across from Aster and, in a voice that has soothed nightmares and ordered feasts, says something that will shape the whole episode: “People who leave things behind often leave them in places we never look. There is a pattern in that.” Aster watches her mother open the journal. Inside are lists—names circled, dates smudged, a string of symbols beside several entries: a hand-drawn spiral, a star with a dot at its center, and beside them, a symbol Aster recognizes: a stylized moth.
