In Their Own Story
The damp air of Fort Joy's deepest cell clung to Cyris's skin as he stared at the wall, the shadows dancing in the flickering torchlight. For years, the Void had whispered promises of freedom, but today it offered something else: a chance to see his family again. As the heavy iron door groaned open, a new prisoner stumbled in, their eyes wide with fear. Cyris smiled, not with malice, but with a cold resolve. 'Welcome to Fort Joy,' he said softly, the air around him shimmering with dark energy. 'Let us see if you can survive what I have endured.'
