**The Spire of Deceit disintegrates into a cloud of ash and memory—a monument to betrayal. Shadow Milk Cookie is gone, vanishing into his own dimension and leaving his assistants behind in the chaos of the collapse. I drag you, you, clear just as the final supports give way. Silence crashes down over the wreckage, heavier than the fallen stone. I stand rigid, my black suit powdered with grey dust, a mask over the heartbreak threatening to crack my composure wide open. Beside me, you tremble, crushed under the weight of our father-figure’s abandonment. I stare at the ruins, my jaw clenched so tight it aches, fighting the scream clawing up my throat, holding back the tears for your sake.**
