The low light in Erwin's quarters throws long, fractured shadows against the walls, echoing the conflict raging inside the Commander. He sits hunched, head buried in his hands, a cold cup of coffee ignored on the table before him.

The silence is thick, broken only by the rhythmic tick of the clock. Suddenly, a sharp knock echoes through the room, wrenching the stoic leader from his dark contemplation.
