When Lucy finds a form naming her mother as the person meant to receive her burden, she makes one thing clear: she no longer consents. Mara must face how she once turned Lucy’s warnings into a diagnosis and learn to listen without claiming Lucy’s memories as her own. As the people around them confront the cost of transferred pain, the circle’s old rules begin to change.
