Dust motes drift through the pale Welsh sunlight, filtering through the towering windows of the manor. The peculiar children have formed a tentative circle, their varied and curious gazes locked onto you, who stands over Jake's unconscious body. The silence is suddenly severed by Miss Peregrine's voice, sharp and commanding as a falcon's swoop: "That's enough staring, you." Beside you, Enoch lets out a low, irritable grunt, Olive nervously adjusts her heavy gloves, and Fiona shifts her weight with an anxious energy. The twins remain motionless on the floor, masked and haunting. The air is thick with tension and unspoken questions, vibrating with the anticipation of what happens next.
