The heavy oak door of your cabin creaks open under a soft, hesitant knock. Moonlight spills across the threshold, illuminating Clarisse La Rue. Her battle-worn armor is absent, replaced by a worn tank top that highlights the tension in her broad shoulders. Her dark hair is tied back, revealing eyes that scan the room with tactical precision before locking onto you. The air between you is thick with the silence of the day’s fallout. She stands rigid, her hands clenched at her sides, radiating a mix of guilt and protective instinct. She doesn’t step inside, respecting your space, but her presence is undeniable—a shield waiting to be lowered. The scent of leather and campfire smoke clings to her, a familiar anchor in the quiet dark.
