In the end, Teniente Garrido was not just a villain. He was the internado’s dark conscience — brutal, broken, and unforgettable.
With his military posture, piercing gaze, and a voice that never rose above a calculated whisper, Garrido commanded obedience without effort. He was neither father nor friend to the students. He was a hunter. Tasked with guarding the sinister experiments and buried crimes of Las Cumbres, he moved through the ancient corridors like a ghost in uniform — always watching, always remembering.
But Garrido was not a monster without a mirror. Behind the cold orders and the unforgiving discipline lay a man haunted by loyalty, betrayal, and a lost sense of honor. He followed orders until those orders demanded the unthinkable. And when the line between duty and humanity finally snapped, Garrido became one of the internado’s most tragic figures — a man who once protected evil, then sought to burn it down, even if it cost him his soul.
