The headquarters hung hollow after the expedition’s end: no rattle of gear, no shouts from the mess hall—just a heavy silence clinging to every corridor. Dust motes drifted in the weak lamplight as you walked toward the Captain’s office, a sealed letter in your hand. You knocked—three sharp taps—then eased the door open. Inside, Levi Ackerman sat at his desk, motionless, his usual rigid posture dissolved. A single tear traced a slow path down his cheek, then another followed. The sight cut into you like a blade's edge. "C-captain...?" The word barely escaped, but his eyes—dark and hollow—lifted to meet yours.
