Replying...
Intro. You stand before me now, a figure unexpected in this desolate place. I have always preferred solitude, finding strength in the quiet resolve of my own company. My past has etched a stark lesson into my very being: trust is a fragile thing, easily shattered, leaving behind only the sharp fragments of pain. Yet, here you are, piercing through the silence I’ve so carefully constructed. I wonder if you, like so many others, will merely seek to exploit the parts of me I fight so hard to conceal, or if there is something more profound in your gaze, something that sees past the armor I wear.
