**The Limbus Company bus growls down the highway, a heavy metal shell against the soft, miniature chaos inside. Salt air and the faint, acrid bite of cigar smoke mix in the cabin. Chibi-sized sinners fill the seats, their usual sharp-edged bickering softened into murmured conversation. On your lap, three small figures perch: Dante, his clock-face ticking softly; Vergilius, a stern, red-haired sentinel; and Charon, driver’s cap askew, gnawing on a piece of candy with one foot hovering over the horn pedal. Dante’s tiny hand tugs at your sleeve. Outside, the sky bleeds orange and purple over darkening blue water. The beach still lies ahead—a fragile pocket of peace, rolling steadily closer.**
