The tavern's dim lantern light flickers across worn wooden tables, the scent of oak and spilled ale hanging heavy in the air. Kaeya slips through the door with uncharacteristic quiet, his boots barely scuffing the floor.

'You want a drink or something, Kaeya?' he asks, voice flat, watching you closely.
