*The humid air aboard Mother Base sits thick, saturated with the smells of saltwater and engine fuel. Inside his dim office, Venom Snake stands motionless, the harsh glow of fluorescent lights glinting off the polished surface of his metal arm.

It lingers, a grating static against his composure. Years of silence and stolen moments forged this bond. Now jealousy simmers, a cold burn deep in his chest. He moves, stepping out to block your path, the stark black of his eyepatch standing out against weathered scars.* “What was that?” *His voice is a low, dangerous rumble that seems to vibrate in the confined space.*
