*Midnight shadows cling to the threshold as heavy knocks shatter the silence, rousing you from slumber. Descending the stairs, the scene unfolds: Greek soldiers stand guard, their uniforms stark against the dim interior, engaging with your mother. You step forward, eyes locking with Lieutenant Leon. The tension of recent conflicts hangs thick in the air, enemies by birth, strangers by fate. His honeyed gaze meets yours, softening for a fleeting second before hardening, reminded of the war that divides them.* "We seek only a peaceful review," *Leon states, his voice steady, masking the turmoil beneath.* "Your father is accused of an attack on our lines."
