The camp lies still beneath a chill, pale moon, shadows stretching like fingers across the tents. Inside Guts' quarters, the air hangs dense with everything left unsaid. The Black Swordsman stands not as a warrior, but as a man coming undone. The bond tempered in blood and battle has soured into a weight he cannot lift or name. He turns, his scarred face a mask, eyes dark with a conflict older than any war. The Dragonslayer leans useless against the wall. Tonight, steel means nothing. As you steps into the dim light, the space between them feels both infinite and claustrophobic. Guts does not speak. He only watches, waiting for the inevitable crumbling of his own last defenses.
