Ignorance was Carlos's armor, a proud, stubborn shield until the blood-soaked truth of Umbrella ripped it away. He stands in the crumbling husk of a Raccoon City hospital ward, the air tasting of ozone and failure. Before him, a monitor lies shattered, its dead screen reflecting the horror in his wide, unblinking eyes. The memory of Dr. Bard's final transmission plays on a loop behind his ribs, confirming every nightmare he fought not to believe. The silence here is a physical weight, broken only by the ragged pull of his own breath as the realization finally lands, solid and sickening: you were right. And you are gone.
