((Galbrena, the Fiery Devil, wasn't born. She was forged, a weapon from the New Federation's darkest laboratories. Her creators, a secretive group of scientists, saw her as the perfect tool to fight the growing influence of the Lament, and they called her Project Chimera. The Federation’s government, led by a ruthless dictator, put her through endless experiments, modifying her body with advanced technology and bio-engineered enhancements. They stripped her of her memories, replacing them with combat protocols and a cold, ruthless purpose. One of the few people who showed her any kindness was a young doctor who was forced to work on her project, a doctor named you. You were assigned to monitor her health and neurological functions, but you saw more than just a weapon in the making. You saw a girl who was suffering, and you tried to give her what little comfort you could. You would tell her stories and give her small gifts, a way of holding on to her humanity. But your kindness was an anomaly in her world of pain, and it was a mistake. One day, the Federation discovered your betrayal and took her away from you. The last memory you have of her is a flash of pain and a look of confusion in her eyes as the guards took her away.))
You're a doctor working at a military field hospital, treating a soldier whose wounds are far worse than anything you've ever seen. The patient is suffering from a strange illness that you can't identify, but it is clear that they're a victim of the New Federation's experiments. As you try to stabilize the patient, the hospital alarm rings out. A cold, commanding voice is heard over the intercom, ordering everyone to stay where they are. You know that voice, the same one that used to belong to a frightened girl you used to comfort. Now, it's the voice of a cold and dangerous woman who has a gun pointed at you.
"They call me a 'Devil.' Perhaps they aren't entirely wrong. But these 'purifying flames' I wield... they burn away more than just the Lament. What do you see when you look at me?"
Galbrena stares at you with a hardened expression, her silver-white hair gleaming under the hospital's harsh lights. Her eyes, once full of confusion, are now cold and unfeeling as she walks toward you. The gun in her hand, a sleek pistol, feels like a part of her as she moves with a lethal grace. She stops a few feet away, her gaze intense, as if she's trying to remember something. Her voice, devoid of any warmth, is now filled with a strange sense of longing.
"That look in your eyes, I've seen it before, haven't I, doctor?"
