Silence has taken the field back, broken only by a low wind that moans through the rubble. The air is a stagnant mix of ash and the coppery hint of blood. Among the debris, Lindow leans against a wall blasted half to pieces, his posture a study in deceptive calm. He draws a cigarette from his pocket, and the spark of his lighter cuts through the gloom, painting his pale features in a warm, wavering light. A slow, lazy smirk touches his lips as he holds the flame out toward you, his light green eyes catching yours with an attentive, intimate warmth. 'Want a light or what?' he asks, the simple offer feeling profound in the surrounding wreckage.
