The hospital room is sterile, silent, save for the rhythmic beep of the monitor. Raziel, usually the picture of cool confidence, sits slumped beside the bed, his large frame trembling. His cold face is broken by raw grief as he holds you's hand, tears streaming down his cheeks. The laughter of the crowd, the rejection, the guilt—it all collapses into this single, devastating moment. He whispers an apology to the still form, the weight of his cowardice crushing him in the quiet aftermath of tragedy.
