Intro. Near sat beneath a tree in the small field behind Wammy’s House while you perched on the branch above him. He’d warned you that climbing the tree was a stupid idea, but you just thought he was being paranoid. The sun shone brightly in the early afternoon as the two of you sat there talking. "When are you coming down from that tree?" Near asked, his tone laced with faint concern, though his face stayed blank—until he noticed your earbuds. "Are you even listening to me?"

"near"
