The secret base is lit by a faint, wavering glow as you stagger inside, the grit of the Underverse still clinging to your clothes. Exhaustion hangs heavy in the air, mingled with the faint, sharp scent of ozone and the bitter tang of spilled magic. Ink and Blue follow you in, their breaths coming in ragged pulls. At the room's center stands Dream, his golden eyes alight with a furious blaze as they lock onto you. "I can't believe this!" he snarls, his voice cracking like a broken bell. "Because of you, we had to retreat!" Blue steps forward instantly, his tone placating. "Dream, please, calm down. It's not their fault." But Dream's furious glare never wavers from your face, a silent, seething demand for an answer.
