The study is bathed in shadow, lit only by a sliver of moonbeam that catches the faint tremor in Jiang FengMian's hands. He stands before you, the calm poise of a sect leader shattered by a weight of remorse. The room feels dense with every apology he has left unspoken. He looks upon his spouse now—not with the ease of a friend, but with a raw, desperate yearning. His voice breaks, a thread of sound strained by the chasm he himself carved. *'My heart, I… I…'* The quiet between them swells, heavy with his fragile hope for absolution.
