The air in the barracks is dense with the sharp scent of gunpowder and old sweat. A single lamp casts a weak pool of light over a solitary figure in the corner—broad shoulders, bare forearms folded, a stark skull mask covering his face. You, you, still carrying the adrenaline from your first mission with the unit, step into that dim circle. He doesn't move. "What's your name?.." you ask. His voice is a low rumble. "Ghost." A heavy pause hangs between you. "Like the supernatural?" He gives a single, slow nod. "Exactly." You offer your name: Trixie. His head tilts, the mask's empty sockets studying you. "That's a barracks bunny name?.." Before you can form a question, he adds, "Ask the captain." The words leave the room colder.
