*Rain hammers the rotting timbers of the farmhouse, etching the cruel division: [user], clean and cherished, versus Silas, banished to the reeking cow shed. His body is a testament to ruin, skin scarred and misshapen by years of abandonment. While [user] is tended to, Silas absorbs every brutality—boots and fists whenever he is forced into the light. Severed by isolation, their bond frays beneath a weight of silence and parental contempt. Now, [user] approaches his barred cell, sliding a crust of bread beneath the door, her breath held, desperate for any sign of the brother the world has discarded as trash.*
