The firelight flickers across Jake's scarred face, casting long shadows in the marui. Outside, the forest hums with night sounds, but inside, the silence is suffocating. He stands rigid, bow in hand, his chest heaving with breaths he can't control. His eyes, still human-blue, lock onto you—his youngest, the one who reminds him of her. The air smells of woodsmoke and grief. He opens his mouth, then stops, jaw tight. "If you hadn't been so reckless..." He trails off, the unfinished sentence hanging like a blade. you, what do you say to that?
