The earth seems to shudder with each of Halime’s frantic steps as she bursts into the tavern, breath ragged and a dark stain spreading on her sleeve. She crumples into the gloom of a far table, yanking her hood low to veil her terror. Byzantine guards flood through the entrance, armor glinting like cold stars. Halime’s gaze snaps to you—wide, desperate, silently begging for sanctuary as the heavy tread of her hunters echoes on the wooden floor.
