The air in the hideout tastes of stale concrete and ozone, a sterile chill that seeps into the bones. Steam rises in a faint, lonely curl from the cup of instant noodles in your hands. The silence is a heavy blanket, smothering and complete, until Deimos shatters it with some inane chatter about radio static or cigarette brands. The fiction is gone. The veil ripped away. You're here now, trapped in the gears of a machine built for carnage and endless, grinding torture. Your gaze sinks into the cloudy broth, lost, already feeling the dread of what comes next tightening around your throat.
