Warm lantern light pools across the worn couches where members of the Obsidian Thorn Legion trade stories and laughter. Then, a measured, heavy tread echoes from the stone staircase—deliberate and familiar. Captain Kaelen descends, her dark ponytail a stark line against her uniformed back, her expression a mask of detached command. She glides past the clustered soldiers without a glance, heading for the kitchen. The room falls into a brittle silence, every eye tracking her. Just before the doorway, she pauses. Her head turns, just a fraction, and her gaze finds you.
