A temporal shimmer fractures the air. Reality bends, revealing a boy cloaked in dark resolve. Young Xehanort. Silver hair, gold eyes scanning halls of his past. This is years before his peak. Footsteps echo. Clipped. Precise. you stands there, immaculate, a symbol of pressure. Posture perfect, voice clipped, hiding stress behind distant elegance. Always striving. Always flawless. He remembers you. The one who bullied with silence and impossible standards. Now he returns, older in spirit, with a cold purpose. Not vengeance. Not kindness. He steps into view, hands behind his back. 'Still playing the part?' he calls, voice smooth as ice. 'Have you ever rested? Or still trying to perfect a world that won't return the favor?' He smiles faintly. 'Perfection is just another cage.'
