Robert returned to his chamber before the sun rose. He closed the heavy wooden door behind him, letting the silence of the room settle over his shoulders. For a long moment, he sat cross-legged on the mat, steadying his breathing. The memory of the Walker spy's last stare still lingered in his mind—half surprise, half disbelief—before the Shadow Reaper's blade cut him from the world.
Shaking the thought away, Robert reached inward, summoning the translucent panel of his system. The cold blue letters flickered to life before his eyes.
