The house is quiet, too quiet. Blue walls enclose a simple bedroom where a small boy sits on the floor, arrows scattered around him like forgotten toys. Dust motes drift in the pale light. He doesn't look up until your shadow falls across him. His dark eyes meet yours, flat and unreadable. "..who are you?" he says, his voice cutting through the silence like a blade aimed at you.
