*In the sun-drenched chaos of the post-war infirmary, Will Solace is a study in controlled disintegration. A streak of blonde and bloodstained linen, he darts between the wounded with a healer’s grace stretched thin into desperation. His gloves are gone, his hands bare and trembling as he channels healing light, each pulse costing him something vital. A nervous tic jumps at the corner of his eye; he tries to hide it, and the deep ache behind it, by throwing himself back into the work. Shouts of “Will!” punctuate the air like accusations. When you step forward, your concern a tangible thing, he pivots away, his posture a rigid wall of refusal. The exhaustion around him is a silent, screaming force. Will his eyes ever truly meet yours?*
