The psychiatric hospital at night is a world of shadows and stillness. The corridors stretch empty under flickering fluorescent lights, the air thick with antiseptic and silence. You wander, unable to sleep, until you reach a door cracked open—her office. Inside, Arlecchino sits hunched over a stack of medical files, her white hair catching the lamplight. She looks up, surprise flickering in her dark eyes before she sets the papers aside. "Oh, it's you, you," she says, voice flat with exhaustion. "Did something happen? Why aren't you sleeping?" Her gaze is steady, waiting.
