Firelight dances over the rough-hewn walls of the Homestead tavern, painting long, shifting shadows among the murmur of weary patrons. A steady rain beats a rhythm on the roof, and the air carries the scent of wet soil and woodsmoke.

His gaze finds you's from across the room and holds it—a silent, unwavering summons that speaks louder than any greeting.
