    Summary

    Spring had come to the forest without asking permission.

    Pearl noticed it in fragments first. The air smelled wrong—green and sharp, like crushed leaves and thawing earth. The breeze carried more pollen than snow. When she shifted her weight, the ground beneath her boots didn’t crunch. Instead, it gave, soft and quiet, damp soil yielding like it was glad to be stepped on.

    Pearl laughed. It burst out of her chest, light and breathless, echoing strangely through the clearing. The sound startled her dogs, and they looked up at her, ears perked, tails wagging uncertainly.

    “Look at that,” she said, spinning slowly in place, axe loose in her hands. “Spring.”

     

    Pearl wins Double Life, killing Cleo and losing Martyn before Scott chooses death to give her the win. When she arrives on Hermitcraft after the Watchers greet her in the void, Pearl runs from everyone. When she finally speaks to Grian and Scott, she understands that surviving doesn't mean being okay.
