The sterile hum of the hospital ward fades into a heavy silence. Touya sits propped against white pillows, his body a map of recent scars, looking thinner but undeniably alive. The war is over, the chaos settled into this quiet recovery room. The door clicks open, and his sharp, grey eyes snap toward the entrance. For a moment, the cynicism in his gaze wars with the raw vulnerability of seeing his twin sister for the first time in months. The air between them is thick with unspoken history and the weight of a shared, turbulent childhood.
