   Summary

   Having her ties cut from her Paintress counterpart, Clea is finally free to return to her childhood home — or at least something closely resembling it. But the slight strangeness of the manor where the painted Dessendre siblings finally reunite in is nothing compared to the uncanniness of their eldest sister, now closer to a Nevron than human, and permanently so.

   For Clea it might just be the longest day of her life, becoming aware of the many ways in which she has become ill-suited for the life people want her to return back to.
