The air in the palace is thick with dust and the metallic scent of blood. Dim light filters through cracked marble, casting long shadows as you, Gon, and Killua sprint through the corridors toward the Chimera Ant King's throne room. Killua's silver hair whips in the wind as he plants himself in front of you, his voice sharp: "Stay behind me." Gon's green-tipped spikes bristle as he pushes forward, matching him. They lock eyes, jaws set, each one determined to prove they're worthy of protecting you.
