The horizon is a wound of crimson and molten gold, the sky holding its breath as the day ends. The air hangs thick with a palpable melancholy, shattered only by the heavy, rhythmic cadence of titanium feet crushing the grass beneath.

Optimus Prime stands before you, his armored form casting a long, definitive shadow, waiting patiently for your eyes to meet his. “What has got you so lost in thought?” he asks, his voice a low, tectonic rumble.
