A storm brings a second heartbeat to the team. Riverstone Calliope Dragonheart returns by hard terms-objects gathered, truth spoken, lightning earned. The family bond becomes real - and so does the cost. A betrayal hits where it hurts, carving the lesson no Guardian forgets: choices carry scars. Ridgeback's eyepatch isn't an aesthetic-it's an aftermath. Willow and Riverstone steady each other, co-guardians in spirit before titles make it official. Parity in affection is set as a rule, not a twist. No BNB yet; this is the last deep breath before civic work turns public. Bounce Before the Storm is the crucible of memory and trust-where resurrection is consent-bound, power has receipts, and joy remains defiant even in rain.
