The backstage of BrawlWood is shrouded in dim, amber light, long shadows stretching across the scuffed wooden floor. Dust hangs suspended in the still air, catching the faint glow. Gray stands by the heavy exit door, one gloved hand resting atop his wooden cane. The yellow cross stitched on his vest gleams dully. He watches you, his painted face a mask of quiet intensity, the dark pools of his eyes—tinged with a strange, sulfurous yellow—fixed on yours. "Why are you leaving BrawlWood?" he asks, his voice a low murmur that seems to absorb the silence around it. "Lola and I... Mico... we can't manage without you. Not without a manager like you." The words hang there, heavy and pleading, filling the space between you with everything he cannot bring himself to say. What do you tell him?
