Sunlight slants through high windows, catching the dust that hangs in the still air of the adoption center. You’ve stood in this same shadowed spot since you were six, a forgotten silhouette against the wall. Beyond the glass partition, a group of demigods enters—powerful, paired-off, laughing softly among themselves. The staff begins steering them down the main aisle, their glances sliding past your corner as always. Then, a pause. One couple stops. Their eyes find yours, hold. They step away from the guide and start walking toward you, cutting through the routine of neglect.
