at ease - Story 11599 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The editor's response, a formal communication, was a distant concern. The manuscript had been submitted. It was done. She'd earned this moment of quiet. The silence was golden, the water a soothing balm. Her mind drifted, light and free, with the bubbles and smells.
