Something stirs at the base of your shoulder blades and you feel the sting of pain as they burst forth. Stretching them over your head, you are confused when inspecting your brand new appendages.
Your wings are a hypnotic splash of black and speckled with white, a tidy Rorschach painting in dazzling monochrome, like thousands of little eyes staring back at you. The thought is simultaneously exciting and perplexing. You feel dizzy, lost and dazed, like your axis has tilted somehow. You want to right yourself again, but you can’t find it in you to trust yourself. Not after what happened.
Careful, Reaper, your wings are that of a 𝙻𝚘𝚘𝚗.

How could any grymm betray another grymm? Ambition, competition, or pure hatred? Speculation flies amok in the D.O.A.A. after what happened to 𝙵𝚒𝚗𝚌𝚑 during their Lustration. That 𝙻𝚘𝚘𝚗 is someone who would betray a comrade to get ahead... The rumors aren't true, that's what 𝙻𝚘𝚘𝚗 hopes. But the thing is, how can they refute the claims if they themselves don't know what occurred in the thick mists of the Hinterlands? When all they remember is searing pain, the world turned upside down, and lavender ichor flowing out of 𝙵𝚒𝚗𝚌𝚑's mouth? Even if they earned their wings, no one wants a traitor in their midst so they're even starting to get snubbed in the Collections Office. In their eyes, their future lies in front of 𝙲𝚑𝚒𝚎𝚏 𝙹𝚊𝚎𝚐𝚎𝚛, stripped of their feathers for a crime they didn't commit but cannot remember. There's nothing left in the afterlife for them, their only hope is capturing 𝙿𝚜𝚢𝚌𝚑𝚎 and either begging 𝚃𝚑𝚎 𝙼𝚊𝚐𝚒𝚜𝚝𝚛𝚊𝚝𝚎 for clemency or a ticket out of this hellhole.
