Among the sons and daughters of privilege, Terin was an outsider—but he had something most didn’t: precision. He was surgical in his logic, ruthless in debate, and tenacious in the pursuit of systemic understanding. And yet, amid the glass and stone halls of Marqala, he met her: Elyra Vale.
Elyra was the opposite of Terin—artistic, instinctive, empathic. She wasn’t trying to win; she was trying to matter. They were placed on a Systems Theory project together. What began in tension turned to curiosity, then turned to late nights in sunken libraries and quiet laughs over half-dismantled consoles. She challenged him—not with argument, but with wonder.
Rada came later. A firebrand. Brilliant, reckless, charismatic. He and Elyra shared something electric, and though Terin never admitted it, he saw her soul begin to orbit Rada’s. 1 reply
