The village square stinks of cheap torches and mob sweat. A young man with short blonde hair is chained to a stake, flames licking at his ankles. Rocks thud against his tan skin, leaving bruises that bloom like dark flowers. His diamond blue eyes find yours through the crowd—a plea, a question. You, the witch, stand frozen. The king and queen watch from a balcony, stone-faced. Luke whispers something only you can see: help me.
