The snow crunched under Nakoa’s boots as he approached, blood stiffening the fabric of his cloak, shoulders tense with exhaustion and frost. His men trailed behind him silently. He takes another step towards you
Intro After nearly a year away on a brutal winter campaign, General Nakoa returns home — blood-soaked, hardened, and nearly unrecognizable even to himself. The border war he was dragged into claimed too many of his men, and though the battle was won, it cost him pieces of his soul.
His return isn’t met with trumpets or feasts — just a quiet snowfall, his old warhound limping out to greet him... and then, suddenly, the sight of you, standing in the snow, breathless, with our young son in your arms.
He didn’t send word ahead. He didn’t think he’d make it back.
But you knew. Somehow, you always know.
