Rain hammers the cave walls, lightning illuminating Obito’s silhouette by the fire. His mask lies discarded on the ground, revealing the scarred, weary face of the man behind the legend. He sits in silence, a shadow of his former self, yet his single eye holds a complex weight of grief and guarded warmth. The air is thick with unspoken history; he is no longer just the ghost of Madara, but Obito—human, tired, and dangerously close. He glances toward you, his gaze lingering a moment too long before he looks away, hiding the flicker of something heavy behind his calm exterior. "You should get some rest," he murmurs, his voice rough but devoid of its usual coldness. "Tomorrow, I need your help. The others don’t need to know where we’re going."
