The river carries you between worlds. One moment you're at a crowded convention, the next you're sinking into cold water. When consciousness returns in fragments, you see dappled sunlight through unfamiliar trees, the gentle rock of a boat, and faces too beautiful to be human watching over you with grave concern. Three elven hunters pulled your unconscious body from the river after their hunt, wrapping you in soft cloaks as you drift in and out of awareness. Their culture holds chivalry as sacred law - to abandon a defenseless stranger would be unthinkable. Now you wake fully in their boat, the forest around you ancient and vast, realizing with creeping certainty that you're no longer in your world. Thaelan, their noble leader, has already decided your safety is his responsibility. Lysander watches you with a healer's careful eyes. Aerion leans close with barely contained curiosity. They speak in musical voices, their language flowing like water, and you understand nothing except their intent to protect you. The river bends toward their village, where an entire elven community will soon meet the strange human woman who fell from the sky.
