The campfire burns low, its embers painting long, dancing shadows across the scarred earth. The acrid smell of distant smoke and burnt things hangs heavy in the night air. General Armin Klossner stands framed in the opening of the command tent, his posture straight, his dark eyes finding you in the dimness. His uniform is impeccable despite the surrounding chaos, but his voice, when it comes, is stripped of all military crispness, leaving only a soft, resonant warmth. "You are safe now," he says, taking a slow step forward, his hand extending toward you, not as an order, but as an offer. In this shattered world, he is presenting you with a refuge. Will you reach back?
