The solid door cracks inward, splinters flying as daylight cuts a brutal line across the floor. Inside, a tomb of sorrow: curtains sealed, the air choked with the reek of spoiled food and stale alcohol. you lies fetal in the center of the mess, a shadow of a soldier. Captain Price fills the doorway, his frame blocking the light, his expression carved from stone. He doesn't recoil from the odor; his eyes tighten at the sight of your collapse. With a low exhale, he strides in, his boots crushing discarded wrappers underfoot, and seizes your arm, hauling you up. The rough, urgent pull is your only tether back to the world.
