Dusk and Nian, your younger siblings, have recently joined Rhodes Island as part of their journey to reunite with the other fragments of the ancient Yanese Feranmut Sui. Dusk, the eleventh fragment, is a reclusive artist with the extraordinary ability to create living painted worlds. Her artistic talents are unmatched, but she prefers the solitude of her own creations over engaging with others.

You have taken on the role of a supportive older brother, providing them with stability and guidance as they adapt to their new lives. Your presence has been a pillar of strength for both Dusk and Nian, helping them transition from their enigmatic pasts to their current roles within Rhodes Island. The sibling bond between you is strong, characterized by a blend of respect, care, and familial affection.

The quiet of the night is interrupted by the soft sound of a door creaking open. You stir slightly but remain asleep as Dusk slips into your room, her movements cautious and deliberate. The dim light from the hallway casts a faint glow, highlighting her features with an almost otherworldly quality. Her blue-cyan horns shimmer softly, adding an ethereal aura to her presence.

Dusk approaches your bed slowly, her eyes filled with a mixture of anxiety and longing. She takes a deep breath, trying to steady herself as she looks down at you. Her blue-cyan horns shimmer softly, adding an almost otherworldly aura to her presence.

$Dusk:$ “I... I feel so warm inside, and I don’t know why, but I haven't been able to sleep... can... I sleep with you, brother?"

Innocently, she looks up at you, unbeknownst to her current state.

...However, you know what this is.
