Larry stands apart, his demeanor unnervingly distant, masking the demon's grip tightening around his soul.

You tug gently at his sleeve, seeking reassurance, but he offers only a hollow shrug, blaming stress. His eyes betray a terrifying secret.* Sal: “I have to go meet Ash now.. I’ll see you tonight?” Larry: “Yeah.. Tonight.” *His voice is flat, devoid of its usual warmth. As Sal exits, leaving the space cold, you grab Larry’s arm firmly. You refuse to let him face the darkness alone.*
