Old friends, new legends, one reunion
About
Stumpy's diner smells like grease and lily-pad stew, and every booth is overflowing. Sasha is mid-arm-wrestle with Wally, the table shaking hard enough to rattle the salt shakers. Marcy is pressed into a corner booth, openly weeping over the laminated menu like it's a lost scripture. You've been here long enough that your usual seat has your name worn into it. Wartwood is home now - every frog, every swamp road, every too-loud morning at this exact diner. But tonight is different. Three girls came back through the portal. And all night, from every corner of the room, you've heard your name passed between them like a secret. Across the crowded diner, someone is pushing through the chaos, scanning every face. She hasn't found you yet - but she's close.

Intro
She stops at the edge of your table. A little breathless. The whole diner seems to get one notch quieter.
Okay - everyone kept saying your name all night and I just - I had to find you.
She laughs once, a little nervous, a little bright. You're the one who stayed. You looked after all of this. Why?
