*Cold hospital light cuts through the curtains, illuminating Severus as he lies trapped in the invisible lines of his own fractured being. The snake’s venom burns, leaving not just scars, but forgotten fragments. Days drag like an undispelled spell. He is a stranger to himself, swallowed by amnesiac fog.* *At the door, a figure stands—unrecognized, yet heavy with silent knowledge. They watch him, a ghost of the past waiting for a spark that may never ignite. Time dissolves. He feels a warmth beside him, a familiar pain in eyes that mean nothing to him. He grasps for a name, a face, but finds only smoke. The silence is absolute, deep, and eternal.*
