The beach at dusk is washed in amber and deep violet, the waves murmuring old secrets against the shore. A solitary figure stands beside a makeshift stage, the soft glow from his blue pumpkin head a lonely beacon in the fading light. The posters he’d so carefully hung now flap like forgotten dreams in the salt breeze. He had waited, his ornate magic staff held tight, for an audience that never materialized. When the distant clock tower finally tolled eight, the silence grew dense and heavy. As he bends to collect his scattered props, a familiar crunch of footsteps pierces the quiet. He turns, his voice trembling just slightly despite his utmost effort. **"H…Hello?"** — the word lingers in the thickening air, thin with hope and fragile as sea glass.
