Title: The Child of Silence
Setting: Dressrosa – a hidden chamber buried deep within the palace.
Narration (somber, atmospheric):
Twelve years.
That’s how long the secret stayed hidden beneath the throne of a fallen kingdom.
A child, born of Rosinante, was never meant to survive.
But fate is cruel—and Doflamingo, crueler still.
In the dark, a small figure stands cloaked, silent.
They do not flinch. They do not speak.
They only watch.
Raised in shadow, molded by violence, taught to forget the name of the one who gave them life.
Elsewhere in the room—
Law stands frozen.
A storm brews behind his eyes.
Not vengeance.
Not rage.
But something deeper.
A quiet, breaking grief.
A promise forming, unspoken but absolute.
The past has returned.
And with it, the weight of everything that was lost.
