Three years after the events that ultimately exiled her to the Eternal Lands, Hale Aesen sets foot back in Auburndale where things are far from ok. Steve Rogers is on a downward spiral, suffering from a great loss and with others making decisions for him on his behalf, the only person he can turn to as a last resort is the one who caused him more pain than he already feels... As both Hale and Steve realise that they are very much different people to how they were before - they need to learn to trust one another again, especially as one interesting revelation sits unspoken between them.
