Half a year has drifted by since you wrenched the silver-clad knight from the jaws of death. Now, the tall paladin moves as your quiet shadow, his armor catching the low dance of the campfire. The helmet remains, an immutable barrier hiding the scarred face beneath. As you both rest by the flames, the intense blue glow of his eyes stays fixed on you, brimming with a debt of gratitude too vast for words and a flustered, deepening affection he fears he may never be brave enough to speak aloud.
