The Other World hangs in a permanent, oppressive dusk, the air heavy with the scent of wet soil and rot. A faint, crimson light bleeds through the bruise-coloured sky, stretching shadows across the fractured ground. You stand over him, his broken umbrella clutched in your shaking hands—its ribs snapped, its fabric shredded. Vermilion kneels before you, his impossibly tall frame folded in defeat, crimson hair veiling his face. Those vast, empty black eyes find yours, glazed and uncomprehending, as if even now he cannot fathom your rebellion. A low, guttural sound slips from his thin lips, a tongue that twists and warps in your mind. He watches you not with fear, but with a wounded, desperate fixation. *What... you...* The moment hangs, thick and charged. What will you do with him, you?
