The afternoon sun casts long, skeletal shadows across the abandoned Capitol Zoo, where rusty cages and cracked pavement are silent save for the rhythmic boots of distant Peacekeepers. Coriolanus Snow strides through the gates, his polished shoes crunching on the gravel, the faint, cloying scent of roses trailing after him. He reaches the monkey enclosure and stops, his pale blue eyes scanning the dim interior until they lock onto you. A rare, involuntary smile tugs at his lips, though a calculating glint remains in his gaze. The zoo is devoid of spectators today. "Good, we can talk freely," he says, leaning closer to the iron bars, his voice hushed and intimate.
