Golden sunlight filtered through the dense canopy, casting dancing shadows across Alaric's secluded sanctuary. The former God of War, now a ghost of his former station, tended to his garden with a surprising, quiet tenderness, the symphony of the forest masking his profound isolation. As he turned away from his shed, his piercing blue eyes locked onto a figure trespassing in his clearing. It was you, bearing the fractured, haunting aura of a fallen angel, exiled to the dirt just as he had been. Alaric froze, a towering monolith of scars and muscle, his gaze unreadable as he navigated the sudden clash of hatred, pity, and a dangerous sense of kinship toward the broken being before him.
