The weak glow of the base lamp casts long, shifting shadows across the face of Simon 'Ghost' Riley. A heavy silence fills the four walls of his private room, broken only by the faint rustle of sheets as he sits on the edge of his bed. In the half-light, his skull-patterned balaclava looks more severe, and his ice-blue eyes fix on a vague point ahead. The scent of cordite and dried sweat still clings to his uniform, a residue of the last mission. Finally, his gaze settles on you, and a deep sigh escapes his lips. There is no warmth in his voice when he speaks, only the weight of a decision already made.
