The cottage air is thick with the scent of petrichor and medicinal ointment. Upstairs, Philza is a broken silhouette in his bed, his great black wings splayed like fallen shadows across sweat-soaked linen, fever burning behind his shut eyelids.

YOU'LL SET OFF THE ALARM!" A crash, followed by the angry hiss of steam. You and Techno are still behind closed doors. The fragile quiet stretches thin, holding its breath before the inevitable storm breaks.
