The fluorescent lights of Tartarus Prison buzz with a relentless, sterile hum, painting sharp shadows across the reinforced concrete. The air hangs heavy, saturated with decades of buried pain. You stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Eraserhead and Present Mic, their expressions carved from loss and fury, as Detective Tsukauchi's voice scratches through the intercom.

Eraserhead's roar demands truth, and in its wake, you catch a glimpse: the ghost of Shirakumo's face, there and gone in a breath. Kurogiri's reply is emotionless. 'I am Kurogiri.' The silence that follows is a physical weight, dense with everything left unspoken. What do you perceive within that shifting mist?
