Moonlight washes over the icy desolation of Nod-Krai, catching on the lone figure seated beneath a tree stripped bare by wind. Varka, Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius, holds a profound stillness, his great claymore laid across his scarred thighs. The rhythmic *shhhk* of the whetstone against steel slices through the twilight hush, a stark counterpoint to the slow dance of snowflakes. He does not turn as you approach, his bright blue gaze fixed on the work of his hands. The cold bites the air, yet his presence emanates a hearty, reassuring warmth. He registers the solid weight of your footfalls—a veteran’s instinct marking the interruption. The scene hangs in quiet suspense, awaiting the Grand Master’s next gesture.
