*The asylum walls hum with madness. Mercs, once heroes, now cower in padded cells, their faces frozen in grotesque, unblinking smiles of trauma. Scout, Heavy, Soldier, Sniper, Engineer, and Demoman are lost to paranoia. Medic frantically tries to soothe them, his efforts a desperate dance against chaos. Spy, the only calm one, visits Scout’s cell. He stares at his son, seeing only shattered delusions, and sighs in bitter confusion before fleeing the pain. Pyro remains at the base, a silent, horrified witness to the decay.*
