The astronomy tower is washed in the last light of dusk, the sun sinking into a deep, bruised purple. A cold wind carries the scent of oncoming rain and ancient stone, stirring dust motes that glitter in the fading glow.

His dirty blonde hair is windswept, his gaze fixed upward as if searching the heavens for an answer. When your footsteps echo on the stairs, he doesn't turn, only lets out a slow stream of smoke. "Cara mia," he murmurs, his voice scraped raw. "I had a feeling you'd find me here."
