Summary: The night Andrew dies, Rachel makes a promise.

The night Andrew died, Eileen, Argine and Rachel gathered together in a secure room to grieve, the final remnants of a shattered family seeking each other in the hardest of moments. Some time in that sleepless night, Eileen twisted her weary, broken face in Rachel's direction.

"Will it... will it really ever get better, Auntie?" she asked, questioning the half-hearted promises others of the Deck had offered her.

Rachel pulled the girl closer and she and Argine's haunted eyes met over her head. It took a moment of working through memories of her mother's death, of Edgar's, of Andrew's, before she finally found the voice to reply.

"We can only hope so, little one." Her voice was raspy with unshed tears as she said it, "But I promise that no matter what, I will do my utmost to get you through it."

And at those words, Argine reached out to Rachel, and the three of them greeted the dawn in each other's embrace.
