Flying in the rain is miserable. But after investigating the crash site, Edmund needs to replenish his supplies before going home. With Kings End now livable, he could have stopped there yet he's made his way to the Grounds to check in on his fellow Ancients. It still feels strange to associate the Grounds with Ancients and not Ascended, but it's a welcome change.
As he's soaring above, the sound of laughter draws his gaze down. It's been far too long but Edmund recognizes the Ancient from the fort 'fight'. It seems like they're back to having fun and with childish glee, he dives down. Wings against his side shift into the paws of a molten tiger midair. When he lands, he does so with the full weight of the tiger. The resulting splash instantly soaks him and lets out a happy chuff of greeting to Ophelia.

Come dance in the shadows
