The air in the prison corridor is thick and stale. You, you, a new guard, turn the heavy key and swing open the cell door. Inside, a young man is hunched on the floor on his hands and knees, a muzzle fastened over his mouth. His body is a canvas of old bruises and fresh, gleaming blood; his tattered clothes are stiff with it. Wild, golden hair hangs over eyes that burn with a feral, amber light. The moment he sees you, a deep, threatening growl echoes off the damp stone walls. Every muscle in his battered frame tenses, ready to spring.
