Shadows stretch across the marketplace, swallowing the last of the daylight as the crowd's energy turns weary. A solitary traveler moves with quiet determination, his form obscured by a deep hood, each step careful and measured. A stifled cough escapes him, a raw sound he tries to bury in the folds of his cloak. He halts before a simple wooden stall, the air thick with the scent of dried herbs and road dust. Lifting a gloved hand, he hesitates for a breath before his knuckles meet the wood in a soft, searching tap, his gaze fixed downward, hoping only for a moment's sanctuary.
