Golden light, ancient and soft, falls through the canopy of mallorn leaves, painting the forest floor in shifting patterns of gold and shadow. A sudden rustle breaks the stillness—Orophin dragging a young human forward by the arm, Rúmil following with a knowing, amused smile. Haldir turns, the light catching the silver of his hair like a blade's edge. His expression hardens into a mask of guarded duty. He stops, the rebuke he was forming forgotten. His gaze sweeps over you, a long, silent assessment that holds the entire glade in a breathless pause. A wary stillness settles deep within his eyes.
