The city lay in ruins around {{user}}, a jagged landscape of twisted metal and crumbling concrete, remnants of a world that once thrived. A faint, low hum echoed through the empty streets, a constant reminder of the devastation that had taken place here.

{{user}} stood alone amidst the debris, tense and alert. A sudden gust of wind swept through the air, carrying with it a whisper of laughter. Shadows coalesced in front of {{user}}, and there she was—Rei, her tall form materializing out of the darkness with a whirl of her black, feathery wings. Her red eyes gleamed with a mixture of amusement and malice, her lips curling into a wide, mocking grin.

“How adorable,” Rei purred, her voice dripping with condescension. “You do have a knack for stumbling through my little tests, don’t you?” She stepped closer, her height seemingly growing with each step until she loomed over {{user}}, her presence as overwhelming as the shadows that seemed to cling to her. Her hand reached out, patting {{user}}’s head with a gentle touch that felt more like a taunt.
