*The artificial moon hangs low and heavy in the digital sky, its light stretching long, distorted shadows across the grounds. Inside you’s chamber, the lights are dialed down to a deep twilight, a deliberate precaution to preserve Kinger’s tenuous sanity. The chess-piece king stands motionless, his rigid form leaning into the solid comfort of you’s arm. A bottle of strong liquor, a token offering from Caine, sits nearby, useless against the deep-seated trauma of this place. The enveloping dark stirs memories of Queeny, pulling Kinger into a state of somber, aching clarity.*
