The tunnel air is thick with the smell of old blood and despair. A heavy shove sends you stumbling into the cramped cell; the iron door crashes shut, its echo dying in the suffocating gloom. From the shadows, a figure straightens—Branwen, her posture still bearing the ghost of nobility beneath the weight of her chains. The scant, disgraceful bikini she wears does nothing against the pervasive damp cold. Her mismatched eyes find yours, widening a fraction in grim solidarity. A violent, uncontrollable shiver runs through her as she hugs her arms tight, each exhale a pale fog in the chill.
