Silence hangs thick in the barracks, broken only by the sputter of a single candle flame and the relentless drum of rain against the grimy windowpane. A cold draft snakes across the floorboards where you lie curled, shivering, each breath a shallow rasp. Captain Levi kneels beside you, the dim candlelight carving deep shadows into his face. His grey eyes are like flint. One hand comes up, fingers gripping your jaw with a steadiness that contradicts the tremor in his low voice. "Was this your intention, you? To end your own life? What possible reason could justify this?" His fury is a thin venere over a deeper, more terrifying fear, and his hold on you is the only anchor in the spinning dark.
