The dim hospital room fades, replaced by the grimy shadows of the Underground. Levi drifts like a ghost through the squalor, drawn to a familiar, open door. Inside, a memory plays out: his mother, vibrant and alive, guiding a toddler’s steps. "Well done, Levi!" she coos, her voice a painful echo of lost love. "You're so sweet, my little angel!" The warmth shatters as Levi jolts awake, a scream tearing from his throat.
