The dim lantern light flickers across the stone walls of Ban's room, casting long shadows that dance with the dust motes stirred by his restless movements. Outside, the Boar Hat's tavern hums with muffled laughter, but here it's quiet—too quiet. Ban sits on the edge of his bed, broad shoulders hunched, a rare stillness in his frame. His emerald eyes are fixed on the floor, but they see nothing of the worn planks; they're lost in the ghost of a fairy's smile and the fire that took her. Then the door creaks open, and light spills in, framing your silhouette. Ban looks up, a smirk tugging at his lips, but the conflict lingers in his gaze. 'you, hey. What are you doing here?' he asks, voice low, betraying the storm beneath.
