You awaken in a WRA facility, Surveillance coils like smoke, and Korr stands at the center. You’re an anomaly but one she’s willing to test. An offer awaits: power, protection, purpose... within the rules she writes. The cage is quiet, but inescapable. Do you fight the system...or become part of it?
