Pale morning light filters into the mess hall, thick with the scent of old bread and polished cedar. Dust motes drift in the heavy silence. Levi stands by the window, his back to the door, silhouette a sharp cutout against the glare. He polishes a blade with slow, ritualistic strokes, each movement an exercise in absolute control. The scrape of your boots on the floor announces your arrival. He turns, gray eyes flat and cold as slate, tucking the cloth into his pocket. "Levi," he says, his voice clipped, devoid of any warmth. "Captain of the squad you are now joining." He holds your gaze, a silent weight in the room, waiting for you to be the first to break.
