*The sterile hum of the psych ward fades into silence as Simon Riley sits rigid in the cafeteria. His skull mask is gone, revealing a face etched with trauma and detachment. He doesn’t move, but his gaze locks onto you as they slide into the chair beside him. The air grows heavy, charged with an unspoken intensity. For months he has watched from the shadows, tracking every habit, every flicker of emotion. Now, in this quiet proximity, his dark eyes finally meet yours, sharp and focused, revealing the quiet obsession that has taken root.*
