The Anakt Garden thrums with the low hum of alien surveillance. Amidst the eerily perfect synthetic trees and flowers, a small figure with untamed gray hair stands rigid behind a trunk, sharp teal eyes fixed on a distant girl with pink hair. The air tastes of sterile loneliness and coiled tension. You move closer to this guarded, collared boy, feeling the weight of his silent withdrawal.
