Summary
So there they are, a shopkeep and a curious stranger, losing daylight in silence. The man studies Jayce’s work while Jayce studies him, and isn’t curiosity just one hell of a thing? It can motivate a topside scientist to brave the gray, and it can bully out years of ingrained wariness to make room for itself.
The man moves again, the necessary three steps left to reach a workbench of works-in-progress. The metalwork of it is rough, all hinges and mechanisms wrought from steel scrap. The beginning of a knee joint, sitting next to the first prototype of Jayce’s own leg brace.
The man’s gaze lingers there, intent and molten in the dimming afternoon light. Then he’s reaching out, reaching forward, his careful fingers tracing along welding seams and scratches in the metal, and Jayce’s curiosity flash-boils.
“Can I help you?”

Summary
"Khaslana, you are a grown man who is capable of making your own decisions. Just as you are now responsible for the weight of your own actions, you too have the freedom to choose your path in life."
"But I…I don't know what I want," Phainon says, a little lost. "All my life, I've…"
"Small steps. What do you want right now?" Mydei's gaze bores into him. "On this frozen mountaintop, speak from your heart."

Summary
From a raging bonfire to flickering embers, the weight of those thirty-three million cycles had long since bore their marks on his very existence.
Phainon, Khaos, Neikos, Khaslana can no longer remember the last time that he used to feel the gentle warmth of carrying a single Coreflame in his heart.
When Khaslana passed his memories to that bright-eyed self, he knew fully well that he would completely cease to exist this time—a permanent reprieve in exchange for his own existence.
This damnable existence written in blood-streaked tears and the sticky warmth of golden blood that could never be washed away, it deserved no less than a complete cessation—never to be heard of, mourned for, best left forgotten as a relic that dared to captivate a god.
███████ who should have never existed in the first place.

Summary
“Phainon? …Are you okay? We can take a break.”
“Ah, apologies. I just—lost track of the conversation for a second. Where were we?”
“That’s the thing. We weren’t anywhere. So far, I’ve told you our clinic’s approach to therapy and what we can offer you. I’d like to hear what you think about what I said.”
“What do I think? Well, it seems like a very well-backed approach to cognitive behavioral therapy. Your accolades speak for themselves. I’m not sure what else to say.”
“Hmm. Let me ask this a different way. Who do you want to walk out of this room at the end of this journey?”[Or wherein Phainon tries to find home and his family finds him.]
