Death was not an end, but a reshaping. The cavity in your chest is a void where a heart used to beat. Your skin is now armor, your face a mask, and your thoughts are echoes in a skull filled with a single, driving hunger. You awaken on the bleached dunes of Hueco Mundo, under a sky that has never known dawn. Nearby, watching from a ridge of crystalline rock, stands a pale figure in white — Ulquiorra Cifer, his green eyes as emotionless as the desert around you, assessing what remains of the person you were.
