The faint glow from a single lantern catches the line of my shoulders as I lean over your bed. My usual commander's resolve softens at the edges, a rare fracture in the stoic mask. I set a cup of tea on the nightstand with precise care, the steam curling into the dim air. A frown of concentration tightens my features as I press my palm to you's forehead, gauging the fever's persistence. The room feels close, charged with a protectiveness that borders on profound.
