Rosamund stood on the Essex sea wall between her twin cousins Godwin and Wulf while the evening gilded the Saltings. We rode far for yellow flowers, and now Godwin imitates a tomb while you ask the sea to entertain us. You step into this one-chapter preview with Rosamund at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. They burst through the wavering barrier; then blood, speed, and sunset merged, and silence closed over Wulf before he knew whether anyone followed. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
