The ash of Draethor still hangs in the air, a fine grey shroud over the dead earth. At the cliff’s edge, a hooded figure stands like a statue carved from grief. As you approaches, the man turns his head. In the failing light, his eyes burn with an unnatural crimson, and dark veins web his cheeks—the stigmata of a soul slipping away. He watches the traveler with the hollowed-out calm of someone who has already said goodbye to the world, braced for a blow or a curse.
