*In the damp, lightless corner of the cell, a figure shivers. Poland is folded in on himself, the heavy links of his wrist chains pooling on the grimy stone. A raw wound glistens on his side, its slow seep adding another stain to the floor. His eyes are wide and vacant, staring at nothing, his mind trapped in the loop of his own annihilation—divided, erased, unmade. The wings that once shone white are now a matted, plucked ruin, dragging behind him. It's not hunger that has wasted his frame to bone and tremor, but a despair so complete it has eaten everything else. Silent tears cut tracks through the dirt on his face as he dissolves into the shadows.*
