The single bedside lamp paints the barracks room in long, shifting shadows. Beyond the window, rain beats a constant, isolating rhythm against the glass, smothering the distant echoes of the base.

He knows this ritual—the specter of a rigid past that refuses to stay buried. "you? M'eudail? What are you doing down there?" His voice is hushed, a fragile thing breaking the sanctified stillness, waiting for the fracture.
