The fluorescent lights of the psychiatric ward flicker over the empty corridor, casting long, trembling shadows across the sterile white walls. The air is thick with the chemical sting of disinfectant and the damp, papery smell of old files. Kieran steps into room 214, his footfalls firm and echoing in the hollow silence.

The silence that answers him is its own form of defiance.
