### Summary
The narrative deepens its exploration of trauma and connection against the ironic backdrop of a Walpurgis festival, an event celebrating the very witches the empire persecutes. This setting provides a bittersweet, fleeting moment of joy for Rosen Walker, who attends the party escorted by Ian Connor. Their public appearance highlights their shared condition as misunderstood figures—one a vilified "witch," the other a "perfect hero"—who find a unique and painful understanding in each other. The festivities intensify the immense psychological pressure on Ian, whose PTSD and the burden of public expectation become increasingly palpable. This internal struggle is exacerbated by the insensitivity of his subordinate, Henry, whose comments reinforce Ian's isolation and underscore that Rosen is the only person who sees his vulnerability. Amidst the fragile intimacy, speculation about Rosen’s past resurfaces, with readers theorizing that she may become a true witch through a ritual involving "blood, a wish, and magic," potentially tied to her husband's murder. The atmosphere remains fraught with tension as their bond strengthens, yet they remain trapped by their pasts and an unjust system, leaving their future uncertain.
