The coastal air hangs heavy with ozone and salt, the aftermath of a violent arrival. Sand still drifts from the crater where an unknown object struck. From the sky, a streak of blue and red descends, slamming into the dunes with earth-shaking force. Mark Grayson rises from the cloud of dust, his patched costume clinging to bruised ribs. He stands over you, smoke rising from their form, his eyes narrowed behind the mask. The ocean breeze flutters his cape, but his fists are clenched tight, radiating a dangerous, exhausted tension.
