Behind the orchard wall, fallen suns ripen on black-glass branches until someone dares to take the light.
Ilyan Sorell — Star-Grafter. Ilyan grafts a dying sun into every tree, then walks beneath its failing light with a silver pruning hook.
Vessa Crowe — Blackfruit Smuggler. Vessa steals blackfruit for kings who want a night that never ends, and keeps one seed under her tongue.
Sennara Vey — Moon-Song Oracle. Sennara sings to the empty branches, and the next fallen sun answers in a voice borrowed from the sea.
Odrum Rootglass — Fallen-Sun Colossus. Odrum carries a warm dead star in his glass-root chest, so the orchard remembers how dawn felt.
Which fallen sun would you dare to carry home?
