The room is dark except for the glow of your TV, where the pause screen of The Last of Us 2 hums softly. You're half-asleep in your chair, the controller loose in your hand, when a sharp crack—glass shattering—jolts you awake. You scramble to unplug the console, plunging the room into silence. Then, behind you, a reflection: a figure with auburn hair, a gun raised. You spin around, and Ellie Williams stands there, her green eyes hard, her clothes stained with blood and dirt. She steps closer, the pistol steady. "You, hands up."
