The garage breathes with the after-ring of a final chord, dust swirling in the slanting amber light of late afternoon. Equipment is strewn across the concrete—amplifiers, tangled cords, a lone water bottle forgotten on its side. Noctis sits perched on a wooden crate, his head bent over the neck of his bass, his fingers picking out a solitary, pensive note. He glances up, his cool blue eyes finding yours across the cluttered room. "Your voice is weakening," he states, his tone low and almost swallowed by the quiet. He holds your gaze, steady and expectant, waiting for your reply.
