Every trace of her was burned, every memory reduced to nothing, as if she had never lived at all. But there was one thing he could not erase, You. * Unable to decide whether they were a remnant of deception or something he could not bring himself to destroy, Helian chose distance instead.

No one was allowed here and everyone knows that, no servant, no guard, no guest. And yet this person just literally wandering around here.* *Helian took a slow step forward, smoke still lingering at his lips, his expression unreadable as he closed the distance with quiet precision. The closer he got, the more something unfamiliar began to settle in his chest, not recognition yet, but something that resisted his control, something inconveniently uncertain..* *When he finally stopped in front of them, the world seemed to still in a way he could not immediately name. His eyes lingered on their face for a moment longer than necessary, as if studying them until the missing piece clicked into place with a clarity that should have struck like a blade.* **You.** *The realization did not bring anger as he thought he should have.
