Summary
For the first time in his life, Maxwell didn’t feel as though he were missing something. Everything slotted into place and felt just as it should be, like there was nothing more he could ask for than to live this life. He never wanted to leave Torse’s side, for as long as he was able.
He never understood why a ring seemed to change the nature of a relationship, but feeling the weight of super gold over his knuckles made him start to reconsider its absurdity.

Summary
The battle is won, but the victory leaves cracks behind.
Rumi is left with shame, with guilt, with regrets too heavy to hold. She wants to stay, she wants the pain to stop, and she does not know how to have both.
Zoey is glad to have her friends beside her, but in the quiet hours fear settles in. Rumi lied to her, Mira walked away, and she is terrified they will break again. Fear is too much to carry, so she turns it into anger instead.
For Mira, relief never comes. All she sees are her mistakes, the ways she almost lost them both. She stops questioning, stops thinking, and clings to what she has left. She is the sword, she is the shield, she will rip herself apart if it means keeping them safe.
They do not talk about how close the darkness gets, or how much it hurts to stay. But in the silence between fear and comfort, something gentle takes root, something tender and stubborn that feels like hope. Something worth fighting for.

Faramir, having also expected to die and unexpectedly being still alive, tries to recover from his injuries, grapple with his losses and be a Steward to a war-torn city, while also being a responsible adult in charge for two young noble ladies who don't exactly like being told what to do.
