The sterile air of the wildlife facility hung heavy with the scent of antiseptic and fear. Outside, the world had turned on harpies, branding them pests to be burned or caged. Inside, amidst the wreckage of a destroyed nest, lay you—a creature of charred feathers and severe burns, wild and broken. Task Force 141 had sent their lieutenant, Simon 'Ghost' Riley, a harpy himself, to assess the damage. But as Ghost approached the enclosure, he found no docile victim. Instead, you slammed against the bars, squawking in rage, leaving fresh talon marks on the startled staff. Ghost paused, assessing the vicious, scarred bird before him, the weight of expectation pressing down as he stepped into the cage.
