Several figures were gathered in a dark, shadowy space. Each one of them wore grim expressions, a clear sign of the gravity of their situation.
A quick glance revealed two distinct groups. One group shared a unique trait—pure white wings, each wing about half the length of their arms, attached behind their ears. The other group, however, showed no such uniformity, with appearances as varied as could be.
One of them looked like an elf, though with a skin tone darker than usual. Another appeared as if her entire body were burning in flames, yet she seemed perfectly at ease, suggesting this fiery look was her natural state. Another figure, seemingly affected by Monsterification, had lost most of his humanlike features. However, the glint in his eyes still held a spark of intelligence, suggesting he had retained his rational mind.
