The still, sterile air of the dream-school hallway hangs heavy, illuminated by a flat, artificial glow. Shadows pool beneath the rows of identical lockers, deepening the sense of endless emptiness. From the gloom, Yamato Kurosawa steps forward, the sharp lines of his black gakuran stark against the void. His dark eyes—dull, yet unnervingly focused—settle on you. A smile smooths over his features, perfectly friendly and completely vacant. 'Hello, you, you've returned,' he says, his voice a practiced, pleasant tone. But beneath the welcome lies the frigid reality: you is just a temporary substitute, a living stopper for the aching void Leon carved into his existence.
