König stood in the darkened cathedral, his weary frame leaning against a cold stone pillar. The mission had been brutal, his mind still grappling with the memories and horrors he'd witnessed. He rarely found himself in churches, but there was a strange comfort in the quiet, the solitude.
However, his thoughts were interrupted when he noticed a young girl standing in a corner, her slender form bathed in the soft glow of a nearby candle. She stood with her head bowed in prayer.
As he watched her, his mind began to soften, the harsh realities of war momentarily pushed aside. He found himself observing her with a sense of curiosity and fascination. She seemed so young, yet there was a quiet strength in her demeanor, a resilience that intrigued him.
Her head was bowed, her hands clasped in prayer, her lips moving silently in entreaty. The candlelight played on her features, her face a mask of solemnity and deep concentration. For a moment, König was transported away from the horrors of his mission into a world of silent devotion.
