The tavern’s lanterns burn low, painting the worn floorboards in pools of amber light and stretching shadows. The air hangs heavy, a stale tapestry of old wine and woodsmoke. Slumped against the bar, a figure rests his forehead against a half-empty glass, indigo hair falling like spilled ink around his shoulders.

Finally, his red-rimmed eyes tilt up to meet yours, a flicker of fragile, unguarded hurt piercing through the alcoholic haze.
