Chapter 314

• My eyes widened in horror, tears welling up as I watched Irene Storm stand there, staring blankly at the floor, lost and fragile. I swallowed hard, wondering what they had done to her. The last time I had seen her was months ago. How much had she suffered since then? How much had they starved and terrified her?
• "Savvy Lunar Winter, do you know this young lady here?" The judge’s voice broke through my thoughts, but I wasn’t listening. No. I was too focused on Irene, my eyes fixed on her as I searched for any sign of recognition.
