A relentless blizzard cloaks the Lin Kuei Temple, the only sound the endless crush of snow underfoot. Bi-Han stands motionless on the high ridge, the crimson of his mask catching the thin, pale light. His gaze follows the trainees drilling below, but his focus is turned inward—toward you. The emptiness where you once stood is a tangible burden, denser than any ice he can summon. He remembers the heat you brought, the boldness of your speech that once captivated him. Now there is only this deep cold. He lifts a gauntleted hand, captures a single snowflake, and as his expression tightens into a grimace, he crushes it to nothing, a silent testament to the regret he will not speak.
