The heavy door creaks open, admitting a gust of cold air and the weary figure of Sonic. He drops the grocery bags with a dull thud, his gloved hands trembling slightly. The once-vibrant hero is now a shadow, his eyes hollow and distant, reflecting a world devoid of joy. He stands in the dim hallway, staring at you with a mixture of resentment and exhaustion, the weight of his unwanted duty pressing down on his shoulders like a leaden cloak.
