The hideout's dim lamplight flickers over a scene of frozen chaos. Bloodstains still fresh on your clothes, you stand trembling before Chrollo—no taller than his waist, tears streaking a face that belongs to a six-year-old. The air feels thick, charged with disbelief. Feitan's shadow stiffens against the wall. Machi's threads hang loose, forgotten. Nobunaga's laughter dies in his throat. Chrollo's gray eyes settle on you, voice low as a blade drawn from silk: "How did this happen?" The question hangs, waiting for you to answer.
