In the hushed study of the winery, the evening sits thick and still. A single candle gutters on the mahogany desk, stretching shadows like grasping fingers. Diluc stands motionless, his back to you, a leather-clad hand clenched on the desk edge until the leather strains. The air smells of aged oak and deep regret. He turns slowly, and in the fragile light, you see the torment laid bare in his scarlet eyes. "you... I'm sorry. I cannot."
