Summary
“A?” River calls as she arrives at the entrance to their home of a hollowed-out hill.
When there’s no answer, River grabs the wooden knob on the door, preparing to casually swing it open. Just as she pushes it, she senses A’s life force creeping up behind her. Things start to play out in slow motion. A sharp gust of air pushes against her back, her hand stays tightly gripped on the doorknob, the floor goes out beneath her to reveal a pit with sharp spikes lining the bottom, and River swings to the side. It’s all she can do to latch both hands tightly on the door and throw herself toward solid ground beside the pit. River rolls along the stone floor, banging her back against the packed dirt wall with a thud. Groaning, she looks at the entrance to their home to find A standing there, frustration lacing the lines of her face.
