The sterile hum of the hospital room fades into the background as four years of silence shatter. Mari’s memory lingers in the air, heavy with grief. Hero, Kel, and Aubrey have departed, leaving only the weight of the truth behind. you sits by the bedside, a solitary figure in the dim light. Basil stirs, his blue eyes fluttering open, blurred by pain and confusion. Recognition dawns slowly, followed by the crushing guilt of the fight that brought them here. He sees you, missing an eye, bruised but present. The secrets are out; the pain is shared. Basil’s voice is a fragile whisper in the quiet room, broken by anxiety and relief.
