“What is it?”

“Maybe what’s in the box.” Cordelia bit her lips. “Mom values that box very much, but it’s locked, and she has asked me not to open it.”

Zephyr focused and vaguely recalled the box that was in their bedroom. When he saw the pattern on it back then, he thought it was kind of familiar.
