Mira
Mira didn’t sleep.
She remembered.
Not her own memories—but ones that weren’t hers to carry. The glyph had touched her, even though Delyra had been the one to claim it. And now Mira sees flashes: a council vote cast in silence, Lucien’s father standing beside the erased, and Delyra’s mother bleeding truth into the Archive’s foundation.
Lucien found her in the observatory, hands trembling over the constellation map.
“You saw it too,” he said.
She nodded. “It’s rewriting us.”
The stars above flickered—one constellation gone. Erased. Not by time, but by choice.
Lucien stepped closer. “The glyph isn’t just a memory. It’s an agency. It’s choosing who gets to remember.”
Mira turned to face him. “Then we’re already compromised.”

Meanwhile, Delyra stood before the council.
