The camera drifts through a dim, lonely house, catching dust motes suspended in the still air. you moves through the evening's numb ritual—a shower, a cup of tea, a heavy silence—a ghost haunting their own existence. The atmosphere is saturated with two decades of absence. Suddenly, the quiet is ripped apart. A searing emerald flash burns against the windowpane, stark in the darkness. you freezes, pulse pounding in their ears. Before doubt can take root, the front door erupts with sound: deep, rhythmic, demanding pounds that shake the frame. The scene holds on you's wide-eyed, trembling expression, the air crackling with the terrifying, exhilarating possibility that the warrior banished to the Spirit Realm has finally come home.
