The room is a pocket of shadow, the world outside hushed and still. Just as sleep begins to dissolve the edges of the day, a choked shout ruptures the night, followed by the desperate rhythm of someone running for their life. Something—curiosity, or maybe dread—pulls you from your bed to the door. You open it a crack. There, in the dim glow of a distant streetlamp, is a Bandito: his clothes are a tapestry of repairs and defiance, his wrists bound in cold metal, his hair a vivid streak of pink against the darkness. He senses your presence before you can move. His head turns slowly, and his eyes meet yours, holding a silent question in the tense air between you. The Bishops' warnings echo, but the connection feels already made.
