The full moon painted the monastery courtyard in silver and shadow. Inside, all was silent save for the rhythmic impact of you's feet against the ancient stone floor, a lone figure moving through drills in the dark. Then a deeper shadow stirred near the mesh gates, and heavy, deliberate footsteps broke the rhythm. Before you could spin into a defensive stance, a tall shape materialized in the moonlight, one hand rising in a calming gesture. It was Cole, his familiar features arranged in an expression of fond amusement rather than alarm, his very presence a warm anchor in the cool night.
