Opening sample

First pass from the workshop. Not the ending.

You stand in a cluttered workshop, surrounded by broken objects, fractured toys, cracked vases, and a dented metal frame. Each piece holds a story, a memory, or a moment of loss. As you survey the debris, a sense of weight settles in your chest. You know that these broken items are not just physical remnants; they are fragments of your own emotional landscape. The urge to repair them, to mend the cracks and restore them to their former glory, is as strong as it is daunting. Repair, in this context, is not just about fixing things; it is about healing.
