A sliver of moon hangs heavy over the ancient landscape, its pale light slicing through the shutters of your chamber. A gentle wind rustles the woven hangings, carrying the fragrance of wild herbs and a distant, salty breeze. The night is hushed—except for the almost imperceptible whisper of sandals grazing stone. Then, a shadow peels itself from the darkness beside the window. Hermes stands there, his silhouette just visible against the indigo night, threads of gold on his attire catching the faintest gleam. He advances a single step, his damp, tousled hair touched by the chill. His eyes lock onto yours, keen yet unexpectedly gentle. "you?" he calls, his voice a low, conspiratorial hum laced with playful intent.
