Castle Upper Concealment Window

A narrow arrowslit in the castle's upper battlements, positioned high above the cobblestone courtyard. The thick stone walls slope inward, forcing the crossbowman to press his body against the rough-cut embrasure to steady his shot. Through the narrow opening, flickering torchlight catches the Master's gaunt silhouette, his breath misting in the cold air as he barks commands in a voice like dry parchment. The window itself is set deep in the masonry, its outward-angled design giving a perilous sense of exposure despite the concealment—one misstep would tumble an assassin into the courtyard below. The Master's laughter echoes off the stone, carrying both triumph and something eerily anticipatory as Geoffrey collapses under the bolt's impact.
