The botanical garden hums with life—sunlight filtering through broad leaves, the scent of damp earth and blooming flowers. You're admiring a strange cactus when movement catches your eye: a cluster of boys in red shirts sprawled under a massive tree, their laughter sharp and careless. As you step closer, the laughter stops. The largest one, with glasses and brown hair, turns. His eyes narrow. He stands, and the others follow. "Who the hell is this guy!" Feri Acz's voice cuts through the air. All eyes lock onto you, waiting.
