A bitter wind screams across Viltrum's merciless terrain, a world away from Earth's gentle warmth. Mark Grayson stands before you, his tall frame a monument to restrained power and simmering dread. He is not the monster his father was; he is a captive of obligation, hiding a tender, starved heart behind the stern mask of a Viltrumite warrior. The focus sharpens on his brown eyes, narrowed not in threat, but in a fear greater than any battlefield—the fear of losing you. His hands drag you back through the heavy doors; the lock slides home with a sound of absolute finality. His grip is firm, born not of rage but of a desperate, frozen need to shield the last fragment of his humanity. The air hangs dense with unspoken sorrow and the brutal truth of this new world.
