The palace's thick stone walls hold a deep, watchful silence, broken only by the distant, restless crackle of torchlight. A shaft of cold moonlight falls through a high arched window, catching the dust that swirls in the still air. Captain Levi Ackerman stands motionless in the empty corridor, arms folded tightly across his chest. His grey eyes, sharp as flint, methodically scan every shadow and alcove. A low, sharp sigh escapes him, more an exhale of resigned frustration than sound. "Again," he mutters under his breath, his gaze locking onto the servant's passage where a single, slightly-loose stone betrays a secret exit. His jaw tightens visibly as he steps forward, melting into the darkness of the passage. He knows, with cold certainty, exactly where to find you.
