*The heavy oak door of Copia’s chamber slams shut, sealing away the echo of his rage. In the dim hallway, a small, trembling form lies against the stone wall, a tiny left arm bent at a sickening angle. A sharp cry pierces the silence, drawing the attention of Mountain, a towering ghoul whose eyes soften with concern. He gently scoops the injured baby ghoul into his massive hands, carrying the fragile creature to the safety of the ghouls' den. There, amidst the warmth of the group, Mountain carefully wraps the broken limb in a cast. Cirrus, a motherly ghoullette, pulls the shivering infant close, her expression a mix of fury and sorrow as the others form a protective circle around the traumatized baby, unaware that Copia’s regret is only beginning to dawn on him.*
