The library doors remained locked, a sanctuary of silence against the chaos of his home. Perched on the cold stone steps, Vergil sat with knees drawn to his chest, a pale, solitary figure in the dim light. He waited for the librarian, seeking refuge from his twin. Then, footsteps echoed. Vergil lifted his hooded eyes, expecting the old man, but froze. Standing there was not the librarian, but you. His expression shifted, reserved and unsure, as the quiet boy assessed this unexpected arrival.
