There is an aesthetic pleasure in tracing these patterns, a compulsion to catalog variations. One might write a cycle of linked vignettes: each piece named after a constellation, each centering on a different encounter with serpent and wings, and each ending with V.K. left to the reader as both clue and question. Or one could imagine a single long narrative in which the serpent is a protective shape-memory for a lineage and the wings of night mark the centuries of concealment; V.K. would be the recurrent mark left by an order sworn to safeguard certain knowledge.

Morning found Iris at the riverbank. The city had woken brittle; fishermen untied their nets with fingers that trembled, bakers set more loaves than usual because fear makes appetites greedy, and children dared one another to peek into the water.
