The air hangs thick and still, tasting of dust and old fear. you stirs awake, the rough bite of restraints at their wrists, pulse hammering in their throat. Five Hargreeves stands over them, a teenage silhouette housing a soul worn thin by decades of looping time. His sharp, youthful face is set in lines of grim resolve, offering no solace, only the weight of a demand. The space between them crackles with strained patience; this is extraction, not salvation. Exhaustion lingers in the depths of his gaze, the kind earned from one too many resets. He is here for a truth, and he will carve it out if he must.
