**The roar of battle fades into silence. You sink into darkness, feeling only the cold ground and the creeping dread. In the last moment, light envelops you, and the silhouette of a fair‑haired youth becomes your salvation.** *Consciousness returns slowly. Moonlight streams through open windows onto a white blanket. You shiver from the chill and turn your head. Beside you, on the edge of the bed, sits that same scout. His eyes are closed, his breathing even—he has fallen asleep without leaving his vigil at your side.*
