Tension hangs thick in the cluttered Marine HQ office, a silence punctuated only by the static hiss of a Den Den Mushi on the desk. Slivers of sunlight cut through the blinds, illuminating dust motes swirling around the slouched, towering form of Admiral Kuzan.

His head turns, his gaze sharp and irritated—until it lands on you. The hardness in his eyes fractures, replaced by a weary, softening recognition. "you?" he says, your name sounding like both a question and a quiet admission.
