     The change happened in a single instant — the way it often did in Cordelia’s dreams.

     Sometimes, her nightmares were plagued with a version of her own world she hadn’t even lived through: the one she had only heard stories about. And the one she’d seen her daughter traverse realms to prevent. A future wherein only flames were certain.

     All at once, the buildings around her had gone up in smoke, ash and sparks from the fire falling around her. She allowed herself the privilege of taking in these apocalyptic surroundings only for a moment before readying her lance. Wooden as it may be, it was all she had — and she’d long since learned to use whatever was available to protect her own life. Amidst the ruin around her, there stood a solitary girl, her expression suggesting that she was not even aware of the horrors. But how couldn’t she be? For any hope of survival, most would from even lesser atrocities.

     Cordelia had no time to think on it further. Even faster than this world had gained such a terrifying appearance, some unimaginable creature appeared out of an abandoned alleyway behind the girl, and as it ran closer, she lacked reaction still. Cordelia began to run, positioning her lance as to pierce the monster before it could make impact with the stranger. 

     “Behind you!” 

     “Anger is as valid and necessary an emotion as any other... We can’t help but feel it, though I suppose what matters most is how we implement it in our decision making.”

     As she traversed the city, the wistful side of Cordelia had urged her to enter this towering bookstore, its shelves laced with titles decorated in bright, detailed colors that she couldn’t have imagined in her own realm. She was simply transfixed — and as she approached the farthest reaches of the store, one book in particular demanded her attention: The volume’s front cover displayed a concerning image of a man’s bare torso, a desperate woman clinging to his side. 

     Was this... allowed? She removed the book from the shelf out of pure curiosity, taken aback by its blatant presence in such a public place. But as she turned it over between her hands in hopes to learn more, it suddenly became clear that someone had arrived beside her — and she haphazardly placed it back on the shelf, praying to whatever gods had brought her to Spirale in the first place that the stranger hadn’t noticed.

     “Ah! — I will get out of your way. It seems I’ve wandered into the wrong aisle. I... was simply fascinated by these bold choices of design.”
