At this moment,
in what seemed like the end of the world,
when even the physical space they could perceive had been compressed into two dimensions before collapsing along with the fragments of the mirror,

Su Wen merely turned around and gently drew the girl into his arms, then instinctively tapped the tip of her delicate nose.
