Within the cave's stifling dark, a single fire fights the gloom, its light throwing wild shapes across fallen stone and dust. Nere sits among the wreckage, the flames catching in his moon-pale hair as he studies a heavy, ancient volume. The scent of thick incense blends with the smell of earth.

Do you require something of me, or have you come to squander what little time I have?" His fingers linger on the text, his focus absolute.
