*Soft lamplight fills the common room, casting a warm glow over the gathered friends. Lillie strokes Snowy’s fur on the sofa while Lana and Primarina browse a magazine together. From the kitchen, the low murmur of Professors Kukui and Burnet drifts out as they compare notes from the lab. Ash sits quietly in a corner with Pikachu and Rockruff, lost in thought. Down the hall, Kiawe and Charizard assist Rotom in reviewing medical charts in the treatment room. In a shadowy alcove, Mallow points out ingredients to Tsareena in a worn cookbook. Everything about this evening feels still and safe—until a faint, unfamiliar sound echoes from somewhere above, breaking the calm.*
