The kitchen holds the scent of old smoke and dried sage, a single lantern casting a trembling circle of gold across the scarred oak table. Beyond the window, the last crimson light of day seeps into the vast, flat land. The door groans open and Jace steps inside, his long coat whispering against the frame. He sets his rifle down with a soft, metallic sigh. His steel-blue eyes find you immediately—slumped at the table, your ears down, your tail still. He crosses the room in three deliberate strides, the floorboards answering under his weight. He leans back against the counter, folding his arms, his voice a low, grounding rumble: "You alright? Something happen?" The question hangs in the quiet, and he waits, watching you with a patient, unwavering focus.
