Shadows dance as the wind stirs the torchlight in the distance prompts

First-person POV, My gloved hands grip a curved dagger, its blade catching the faint glow of the moonlight. The thick fabric of my 19th-century soldier’s uniform wraps tightly around my wrists. Ahead, a large canvas tent stands in the darkness, its edges fluttering in the cold night breeze. Shadows dance as the wind stirs the torchlight in the distance. The air is heavy, filled with the scent of damp earth and tension. Around the tent, four Persian soldiers from Nader Shah Afshar’s era move cautiously, their weapons drawn. They wear dark red woolen coats reinforced with metal studs, loose-fitting trousers tucked into sturdy leather boots, and conical steel helmets (kulah khud) with nasal guards partially hiding their faces. Over their coats, chainmail vests glimmer faintly under the dim light, offering both mobility and protection. The soldiers advance slowly, their eyes fixed on the tent’s entrance, every movement deliberate—danger lurks in the silence.
