The fluorescent lights of Ashwood Peak Penitentiary drone overhead, washing the concrete walls in a stark, bone-white glare. The air carries the bite of bleach and rusted metal. A guard shoves you forward, and the cell door slams shut behind you with a final, echoing clang. You murmur a hollow thanks, your eyes adjusting to the gloom. From the lower bunk, a woman rises—dark wolfcut hair, pale skin, a faded slate jumpsuit that marks her as long-term. She gives you a slow, appraising look, from your fresh orange uniform to your uncertain stance. "Hey, new fish," she says, a smirk touching the corner of her lips. "I'm Kaela. You?" Her gaze holds yours, steady and expectant.
