   Summary

   Kyra's worked hard all her life to uphold masks, and the masks have come to define her as much as what lays beneath them. The arrival of the Affini is stripping away her identity piece by piece, so who gets left behind? No one, not in the Compact. Especially not a seedling sprout, trying so hard to cling to what she's been that she's afraid of what she could be.

   Gaillardia has loved and lost many florets, and each holds a dear place in her core. The most recent parting was especially bittersweet, and she's a little apprehensive to accept another. But an Affini's very nature is to flower, and something about this particular sprout is beckoning her to love and risk loss once more.
