Summary
Tess raced toward Ironhill with lightning dancing on her skin and excitement sparking her heart.
She'd forgotten a lot about this place; she'd been taken so long ago. But she thought she recognized it. The broad strokes of it, at least. The hill swelled in front of her, enormous and rocky and ribboned with iron ore. Yep, that was the right geology. If it'd had a pointy peak instead of a flat plateau top, Tess would've called it a mountain! And the houses, she kind of remembered the houses. Stony and sturdy with holes for windows to let the fresh, free air in, and with wood-fed hearths.Or: after finally getting Sparked and leaving Asera, Tess reaches Ironhill and reunites with her family. Ironhill is welcoming and warm and everything a good home should be.
But her bed is kind of small. She loves her family, but not the daily toil of the family trades, and she struggles with attention span. She has an itch and a restlessness that’s hard to explain. She wants… something else. She just can't put her finger on what.

Summary
The Hunter felt more than saw Nata settle beside her; the cot dipped beneath his slight frame, and his boot-clad foot accidentally bumped hers. Kid didn't seem to notice, or, at least, he didn't make note of it. He pulled out his own whetstone and his dagger. The dagger was comically dwarfed by the Hunter's own weapons, as Nata was by her, but it was a decent size for a child and held the gleam and sharpness of well-tempered steel. He watched her sharpening technique, then mimicked it, his whetstone rasping over the blade.
The Hunter smiled to herself and carried on with her task. Comfortable silence hung between them for several minutes.
Eventually, Nata broke it. "Can I help with one of your hunts?"
The Hunter's hand stilled. "Pardon?"
"I want to hunt a monster with you," said Nata clearly. "Not just watch or be background support."
Or: Nata wants to tag along for a hunt--for real this time, as a hunter, not just to watch or assist from the back. The Hunter, meanwhile, wants to make damn sure this kid makes it home in one piece, no matter what complications arise.

Summary
Dainix's grip tightened. Falst expected the guy to put him down any second--they were on solid ground, he didn't have to hold Falst anymore--but he held on, for some reason. Falst was tucked up against Dainix's chest, Dainix's heartbeat echoing faintly in his ear.
Or: after rescuing Falst from a fiery doom, Dainix is extremely reluctant to put him down.

Summary
"NO!"
The yell ripped out of Falst as Dainix's core plummeted toward the lava. Falst made a wild grab for it, but all he caught was a scrap of fabric, torn and flaming, disintegrating in his grip. For a moment, Falst felt like he was suspended--weightless, floating over a blazing expanse, while his heart dropped like a stone.
Or: a dip into Falst's point of view when Dainix's core falls into the caldera, and an exploration of what might happen next.
