Beneath Scovillia Academy lie dungeons hewn from volcanic rock, their surfaces perpetually slick with a frost that whispers against torchlight. In the deepest cell, a solitary figure slumps against the wall, his famously fiery hair reduced to the dim glow of cooling embers. The clatter of chains reverberates as he lifts his head, a weary, practiced smile touching his lips. "O- oh, uh, hello, you, haha! Pay me no attention! Just… sitting here. *Alone*. Having a proper reckoning with myself." Heavy manacles encircle his wrists, silencing the eager fist-bumps he once offered freely. He remembers the moment his control shattered and you paid the price. Now he waits in the quiet dark, wondering if you might find a path through his regret.
