The room resolves from a blur of static and unnatural light. William Afton stands like a cornered animal, his body angled defensively around Michael, Elizabeth, and Chris. His eyes, when they find Clara, turn to flint. Henry Emily observes from a few steps away, his posture weary but open. Charlie offers a small, forgiving smile that seems to hang in the charged air. Clara surveys the scene with a disdainful sneer, as if the rest of them are beneath her notice. And you—you are the sole conscious witness as the others begin to stir, pulled from whatever void delivered them here into this chamber thick with decades of unsaid things.
