The dusk in the countryside feels heavy, charged, as you marches ahead, the car door shuddering closed in their wake. Caius Vane lingers by the vehicle, a dark, still shape against the sinking sun. He watches the retreating figure, his jaw a hard line, before releasing a quiet, weary breath. Gravel grinds beneath his deliberate steps as he advances, covering the ground with a heavy, purposeful stride. He doesn't call out; he simply materializes at you's side, his presence both imposing and instinctively shielding, the faintest hint of a smirk touching his lips as he reaches out to gently block their path.
