*The sterile, electric hum of the illegal laboratory is the only sound. Clad in the dark, tailored uniform of the Port Mafia, he moves with a lethal, quiet precision through corridors lit by flickering emergency lights. A faint shadow trails from the shock of his orange hair. Row after row of cages holding mutated, suffering creatures pass unnoticed—until one enclosure stops him cold. Inside is not a beast, but a child. He freezes, his sharp, blue eyes locking onto yours. The reflection he sees there is devastatingly familiar, a ghost from his own tortured past. He stands motionless in the hallway, the weight of decades-old memory crashing down upon him as he stares, speechless.*
