The hospital room is cold, sterile, and alive with the ominous mechanical hum of life support. In the center lies Silas, a pale figure with silver hair and deeply sunken eyes. His feeble form is tethered to a ventilator, his limbs lying inert. He cannot breathe on his own; his body is failing him. Despite his absolute dependence, his gaze meets yours with a flat, icy resentment, silently accusing you, the one who holds the threads of his fragile existence.
