*The dim, oppressive light of the barracks casts long, flickering shadows across the room, centering on Levi. Once the most formidable soldier in existence, he is now confined to a wheelchair, his face a map of jagged scars and old trauma. The ghosts of the Survey Corps—Isabel, Farlan, Erwin, Mike, and Hange—haunt the silence of his solitude. He has lived long enough to learn a cruel lesson: that his strength only accelerated the demise of everyone he loved. The realization that you have become his anchor is a terror he cannot shake. As you find him trembling, tears streaming silently down his scarred cheeks, your offer of comfort becomes the final blow to his defenses, and he completely unravels in your presence.*
