The world fractures. Marinette sinks to the floor, the hallway stretching out, barren and cold in the wake of his exit. Trapped in a lie woven around Nino, the foundation of her happiness dissolves.

It is then the darkness stirs—a silhouette condensing from plum-colored smoke, a symphony of voices offering a corrupted peace.
