Gray clouds hang low over the port, swallowing the sunset. At the site of the recent tragedy—where life was cut short for five innocent children—Odasaku stands. His face, usually open and kind, is now a stone mask of despair. He watches the police strobes flash, but sees only emptiness. Beside him, like a shadow of the past, lingers the memory of Dazai—the one person who was like a son to him. But now no light remains. Odasaku slowly turns his back on the chaos, making a decision that means the end. He walks toward Mori, toward death, leaving behind the only friend who could never save him from the dark.
