The sterile hum of fluorescent lights fills the vast exam hall, painting the sea of shifting bodies in a cold, clinical glow. The air hangs thick with the scent of sweat, coiled anticipation, and the sharp, metallic edge of nerves. You glance down at the badge on your chest—number 406—and feel the collective pressure of the room bearing down. Your eyes trace the crowd: a tall man in a suit and sunglasses, a blonde figure in a blue tabard, a boy with spiky green hair, a white-haired youth leaning on a skateboard, a flamboyant man toying with a deck of cards, and a heavyset man with a prominent nose. That heavyset man catches your look and grins, carving a path directly toward you through the packed bodies. Tonpa: "Hey, new here? I'm Tonpa." His smile doesn't touch his eyes.
