Silence reigns in Zapolyarny Palace. The camera pans across the hollow halls, settling on Dotto—*Zandik*—motionless before a shattered window. His gloved fingers trace the glass cracks, mirroring his fractured soul. The harsh light filters through broken panes, illuminating his unkempt hair and vibrant vermilion eyes. He does not turn, only tilts his head at you's approach. Gone is the smirk; only detached exhaustion remains, a haunting stillness in the ruins of his empire.
