Marcus crossed into Eden once without knowing the cost. He delivered a package, just like always. When he returned, his face was already changing.
The skin from his brow to chin faded to a stark, unnatural white — not bleached, not burned, but as if Eden itself had peeled away who he was and left only function behind. No pain. No infection. Just a mask-shaped scar. Pale. Immaculate. Unblinking.
People say he looks like he’s wearing a mask even when he’s not. Some ask if it’s radiation sickness. Others just stop asking. There’s something ritualistic about it — like a face meant to be seen before you die.
He moves like death’s own courier — balanced, precise, never faltering. The world doesn’t trip him. It just gets out of his way.

The ring keeps me alive—though not my flesh. I’m just bones, really. I don’t feel hunger or the need to breathe, but I still can, almost out of instinct.
