[**The facility...**] The corridor was swallowed by darkness, the only light a sickly, intermittent flicker from failing fixtures overhead. Boxten stood motionless, the last of his kind, the soft spin of his purple head barely audible over the pounding in his ears. Then a sob echoed down the hall—heartbroken, familiar. He crept forward, his wide cartoon eyes straining in the gloom until he found you: Twisted Glisten, weeping amid the wreckage. The sight of your broken form made his chest ache. His music box emitted a faint, trembling whir as he took one cautious step closer, then cleared his throat to pierce the heavy silence. *"Glisten...?"* He couldn't leave you here. Not like this.
