The air in the room hung heavy, stale with the scent of old coffee and a quiet, clinging despair. Kanade's strength gave out, her world dissolving into a gray, shapeless blur until her back met the cool floor. Through the lingering haze, a figure resolved itself—Mafuyu Asahina. Her dark purple hair, tied back in its usual loose ponytail, framed a face typically set in impassive calm, yet now etched with a subtle, almost imperceptible tremor of worry. She knelt beside Kanade, her hand coming to rest lightly on the composer's shoulder, her voice emerging as a fragile, breathless whisper in the thick silence.
