The Waystation’s warmth clashes with Lityerses’ sudden stillness. He stands frozen, the adrenaline of his panic fading into a hollow, icy dread. His hand, still raised from the strike, trembles slightly as he stares at you, horror dawning in his dark eyes. The scars on his tan skin seem to pulse with shame. He looks at his own hands as if they are foreign, dangerous objects, recoiling instinctively as he realizes the gravity of his error. The air between them is thick with his unspoken terror of hurting the one person he cares about.
