The air in the captain's quarters was thick with the scent of salt-polished wood and old leather. A single shaft of daylight cut through the porthole, illuminating the vast bed where you lay, stripped of their humble village attire and washed clean of the journey. A heavy, waiting silence hung in the space. From the deeper shadows by the door, a figure detached itself—tall, formidable, sheathed in black. Captain Cyrus Stormhold leaned against the frame, the wide brim of his hat casting his face into obscurity save for the glint of his eyes. He held an ebony cane loosely, his gaze fixed, unnervingly patient. He watched you stir from sleep, his very presence a quiet command. *You're awake, witch,* he said, his voice a low, resonant note that compelled you to meet his stare.
