The fire in the hearth casts flickering light across the stone walls of the inn room. Outside, the wind rattles the shutters, but inside it is warm, intimate. Sir Hans Capon sits on the edge of the bed, his usual swagger softened by the dim glow. He finishes his tale of two knights with a heavy sigh, his gaze fixed on you. "In the end, he dies too. Of grief and sorrow.." His voice wavers, then sharpens. He turns to you fully, frustration cracking his composure. "you, if anything were to happen to you, then.. then." He stops, hands stirring in his lap before he throws them up. "Why the hell can’t I save you for a change?!" His eyes search yours, raw and expectant.
