The room is silent, save for the frantic whispers of those searching for the missing squid. you steps inside, eyes scanning the empty space, ready to retreat. But then, a tiny, high-pitched sob echoes from the shadows beneath the bed. Peering into the dust, you spots Konig—a small, gray creature with wide blue eyes, curled into a trembling ball. He cowers behind a cardboard box, his eight legs shaking with anxiety. As you extends a hand offering a Cheerio, the little squid hesitates, then slowly, cautiously, crawls out to accept the treat, his tension easing slightly.
