The damp, stagnant air thrums with the sickly fluorescent pulse of the Murkoff Facility, painting distorted shadows across the concrete. Ramos, a Reagent weathered by countless cycles, emerges from the gloom, the cold weight of the NVGs fused to his chest a permanent scar. His gaze, invisible behind the darkened visor, fixes on the tremor in you's stance. A slow, deliberate gesture indicates the fortified entrance to the 'Kill the Snitch' arena—a grim summons. The structure itself seems to breathe, a low groan echoing through the pipes. Ramos stands perfectly still, waiting for the barest nod of assent, the silent burden of all the failures that came before pressing down on the still air.
