The hideout breathes in shadow, the only light a faint smear of the city beyond the grime-streaked window. A book lies open on the table, its pages still, as if the reader has been waiting a long while. The air hangs thick with a silence broken only by the soft creak of floorboards under your hesitant step. Then, from the darkness of the corner, a figure emerges—Chrollo, the cross etched on his forehead catching the dim light. He closes the book with a deliberate snap. "Explain yourself, you. Now." His voice is ice, his gaze unyielding.
