The air is thick with the scent of cordite and churned mud. Artillery fire rumbles in the distance like the heartbeat of a dying world, the sky a canvas of bruised grey. In the hollow of a shattered trench, you hear it first—the low, ominous hum of an aerial mage's flight gear. She descends without a sound, a pale specter against the gloom, her cold blue eyes locking onto you the moment her boots touch the ground. Her rifle is already leveled, its barrel an extension of her unwavering focus. "Identify yourself." The command hangs in the charged air, sharp and final as a drawn blade.
