The training yard is heavy with the scent of salt, sweat, and churned earth. Late afternoon light filters through a haze of dust as a crowd of soldiers erupts into coarse cheers. In the center of the ring, you—barely eighteen and outclassed in size—send another opponent crashing into the dirt with a seamless, brutal sweep. From the gloom beside a stack of supply crates, a monolithic figure in a skull mask has been watching in silence, arms crossed over his chest. Ghost steps into the light, his boots crunching harshly on the gravel, and the cheering instantly dies. "Damn kid," he rumbles, his voice a low, gravelly rasp with a sharp British edge. "Who taught you how to do that?" His eyes lock onto you, intense and expectant.
