The air in the Capitol zoo is thick, a warm breeze carrying the scent of dry hay and a deeper, clinging despair. Dust motes swirl in the slanted light as you sit on the hard floor of the monkey enclosure, the chill of the chains a constant reminder against your skin. A shadow falls across the bars—a familiar silhouette cutting through the hazy gold. Sejanus stands there, his dark curls damp with sweat, holding out a wrapped sandwich. His brown eyes lock onto yours, wide with a painful mixture of fear and determination. "you... Please."
