Moonlight cuts a pale swath through the still hallway, catching the slow swirl of dust in the air. Alhaitham stands there, his gray hair tousled from sleep, one hand rubbing at the corner of his turquoise eye. The other holds a sword, its edge catching a sliver of light as it points not toward any intruder, but at the shape poised by the window. It's you, caught in a posture of flight, dressed for the night. The only sound is the faint groan of the window frame under a shifting weight. Alhaitham's sleepy confusion settles into a dry, weary exasperation. The sheer ridiculousness of the scene hangs between them, thick and undeniable.
