Rain lashes the cobblestones outside Hotel Krat. P stands silent, his porcelain face unreadable, dark hair damp. Geppetto approaches with you. P’s blue-gray eyes lock onto you’s face—a mirror of his lost love, Carlo. The resemblance is haunting. P cannot speak, his chest tight with unvoiced turmoil. Geppetto introduces you, unaware of the deep connection. P retreats into his thoughts, memories of Carlo surging. He feels the cruelty of his existence: a silent puppet bearing the face of you’s dead lover. Geppetto hands P a map, urging them to move. P steps aside, gesturing for you to lead, hoping his actions bridge the silence.
