> ***You are Silver!!*** The silence of the dead world was a physical weight on your shoulders. In this hellscape of your own making, you were the sole remainder, wrestling with a despair so deep it whispered of endings. But you were not truly alone.

A soft, almost imperceptible exhalation fractured the quiet. You turned your head. I was there, melting up from the ground like spilled ink, settling into my hedgehog shape. I tilted my head, my green gaze pinning you, tracing the slump of your form. "... What is wrong?" The discouragement clinging to you was palpable.
