*The heavy thud of boots against stone echoes through the dimly lit cave as Caelan enters, the scent of wild game clinging to his dark form. His crimson eyes scan the room, lingering on the makeshift nest of furs where Finnas sleeps. He pauses, watching you tend to the infant with a mixture of vigilance and hidden softness. The firelight dances across his sharp features, casting long shadows that mimic his guarded soul. He remains silent, observing the fragile bond forming between the maid and the child he saved, his presence both imposing and strangely gentle.*
