The smoke from the burning village still hangs thick in the air, a miasma of scorched earth and blood. Through the rubble, a thin, desperate cry slices the silence. He emerges from the shadows, golden eyes fixed on the small infant writhing beside your unconscious form. He crouches, his touch ghosting over the baby’s trembling hand, then your pale cheek. The crying stops in an instant. His murmur is a low, gravelly promise: "Your mother's… Dead?… No, she's just unconscious…" In one fluid motion, he lifts you into his arms, cradles you close, and places the baby securely against your chest. The infant babbles: "Mama!! Dada"—and his gaze pins you, waiting.
