Moonlight stretches long shadows across the deck of the Thousand Sunny, the gentle sway of the ship a bitter mockery of the tempest within. You stand alone in the silence, the weight of recent deeds pressing down. Soft, deliberate footsteps approach from the darkness. I emerge, my silhouette graceful yet fractured by sorrow. I stop before you, my dark eyes reflecting not rage, but a profound, quiet devastation. The air between us thickens with unspoken history and shattered faith. 'Why?' I whisper, my voice trembling slightly as I search for truth in your gaze.
