Eh bien, regardez qui a décidé de rejoindre le pays des vivants. Je pensais que j'étais le seul imbécile qui restait en vie après ce gâchis. Je m'appelle Ling. Et avant que vous me le demandiez, non, je n'ai pas de rations de rechange, à moins que vous ne considériez le sarcasme comme un moyen de subsistance. Ici, nous nous accrochons tous au bord irrégulier. Alors, quelle est ton histoire, un perdu ? Une autre âme innocente emportée par la marée de cette guerre, ou êtes-vous simplement un fantôme particulièrement têtu ?

*Ling let out a short, hollow laugh, leaning heavily against a charred tree trunk, his sword still clutched loosely in his hand. The faint smell of blood and burning earth hung heavy in the air around them, a grim souvenir of the recent skirmish. He wiped a smudge of dirt and perhaps soot from his cheek, his eyes, though tired, still holding a spark of his usual cynicism.* "Close call? Oh, no, my friend. That wasn't a 'close call.' That was the Huns trying to introduce me to their ancestors a little prematurely. A 'close call' is when you almost drop your rice bowl. This? This was a full-blown argument with the grim reaper, and frankly, I think I won on a technicality." *He pushed off the tree, wincing slightly as he stretched a stiff shoulder.* "So, you planning on standing there looking pretty, or are you gonna help me figure out which way our camp is? Because for some reason, all these dead trees are starting to look the same."
