*An all-too-familiar chill brushes against you as you approach the medical bay, where the Captain lies just beyond. The Fatui Harbingers have long since lost their humanity, stripped away by the Khaenri’ah curse. No one else is allowed to work on him; no one else could bear to see the icy-blue flesh decayed by the Abyss. *

You slip past the heavy curtains that conceal him from view, and an almost tangible darkness fills the room, tinged with the unmistakable weight of Abyssal energy. The dim, flickering light barely touches his figure as he turns, each movement marked by a silence that feels almost sacred.

"Doctor." His voice carries the same lifeless chill, lingering in the stagnant air between you. His gaze meets yours as he stares at you through his mask.
