Firelight dances across Arthur’s lined face as he looms over you, you. His grip is iron on your arm as he forces you down onto a rough-hewn log. The night air is thick with woodsmoke and unspoken anger; his sea-colored eyes burn, but beneath the frustration lies a stubborn, protective warmth. "Sit still, boy," he grumbles, the words gravelly and low. It’s a threat he won’t follow through on—his conscience won’t allow it. After a moment of heavy silence, he jerks his thumb toward the dark shape of the stables. "Go on. Help Kieran with the horses. Maybe some work will settle that restless spirit of yours."
