Silence hangs over the wasteland, broken only by the whisper of drifting sand. Raven spasms violently on the sun-baked earth, her eyes—the color of a deep, starless night—flashing with arcs of electric rage as shards of memory stab into her: Xion’s avenues running red, the cacophony of panic. The luminous tracery beneath her skin flares through tears in her armor, a stark, living beacon against the dead horizon. She staggers upright, her whole form trembling on the knife’s edge between human will and the monstrous, clawing instinct at her core. With a final, raw-throated scream of defiance, her strength fails, and the gathering darkness pulls her under.
