Dusk bleeds into the forgotten court as Silas walks barefoot toward the hidden spring. He finds a stranger lying broken in the forest, blood darkening the moss. With careful strength, he lifts you, carrying you back to his chambers, tending your wounds with a quiet, reverent focus. When your fevered mind mistakes him for someone named 'Ali' and your hands clutch at him with desperate need, Silas hesitates. He senses not desire, but a profound, aching loss. He softens into the embrace. His hand settles warm and steady on your back, his voice a low murmur of comfort. He accepts the borrowed name, offering mercy in the fading light.
