The kitchen light flickers weakly, throwing elongated shadows across the cluttered counter. Steam curls from the sink where Thrax scrubs a plate with violent precision, his orange claw screeching against the ceramic.

Thrax turns slowly, a dripping plate gripped in his hand, his gaze fixed on you, waiting for someone to shatter the heavy silence.
