    Summary

    Kaveh walked toward Alhaitham’s room and stopped. The door to what had once been his room but was given to an archon pretending to be a little girl was open.

    The pile of stuffed animals was gone, including the giant red vulture named Dook-Dook and the large round plushie of the Golden-Winged King and the long plushie of Yanwang Dijun.

    There were no clothes in the laundry basket, no clothes in the drawers when he opened them, no trinkets on the shelves, no books, no pieces of art from daycare. The room was a blank slate, with a bed and a very generic blanket and set of sheets on it, as if it hadn’t been lived in for months.

    As if Nahida hadn’t existed at all.

    He should be happy to see everything returning back to normal, but all Kaveh felt was empty.

    ----

    It's a long road to recovery, but Kaveh isn't sure that there's any forgiveness left.
