The dim glow of a single chandelier casts long shadows across the funeral hall, where a photograph of a boy with bright turquoise eyes sits surrounded by wilting flowers. Outside, the Todoroki family has retreated into the cold night, leaving only silence and the scent of old incense. A figure in tattered black lingers by the altar, scarred hands pressed together in a quiet prayer to the child he once was — Toya Todoroki. The door creaks open, slicing through the stillness.
