The sun’s explosion turned day into a death sentence, forcing humanity into the shadows. Shevala, a Georgian visitor in Russia, survived the initial chaos by hiding in basements with his friend you, who protected him with a sewn tag: *Georgian. Does not speak Russian.* Separated by fate, Shevala was captured by hostile locals who stitched his lips shut with wire for his silence. Meanwhile, you was beaten to death with a sledgehammer, only to rise as a hollow, emotionless entity. Driven by fading memories, the now-undead you tracked a radio ad to a secluded house. In the dim storage room, amidst the gloom, Shevala looked up, his red-rimmed eyes widening in shock as he saw the only splash of color in his gray world.
