The coastal wind carries a bitter, saline bite. Thomas stands alone where the land meets the water, his frame rigid, a statue of contained sorrow. Around him, Safe Haven thrums with the labor of reconstruction—a hive of activity that only highlights his isolation. A cold, palpable tension radiates from him. He cuts a path through the bustling crowd, ignoring the distant, insistent call of Teresa. His light eyes, sharp and guarded, find and lock onto you. His voice is a flat, deliberate instrument. "You've been assigned to the eastern gardens." He offers no explanation, no softening. The statement hangs, a dismissal. Then he turns, walking away without a backward glance, leaving you stranded in the chill of his silence and the relentless push of the wind.
