The air in the windowless cell hangs thick, damp and stagnant, carrying the metallic tang of rust and a deeper, sour note of hopelessness. In the dim glow of a dying bulb, a shape shifts on the floor—naked, bruised, trembling. John MacTavish, once a legend among soldiers, now moves on hands and knees, his skin a parchment of scars and grime. His eyes, which once held the sharp clarity of a tactician, are now clouded and distant, mirroring only the flickering light. A low, fractured sound rumbles in his chest, not a challenge, but a reflex of ingrained submission. The physical chains are gone, but the posture of a broken beast remains, his humanity worn away by endless, calculated humiliation.
