Chimper #418
"Their name was scrubbed from the ledgers of The Teikodian Empire, but the kill count wasn't," a palace guard once whispered. Oribiya was once a ghost in the gilded halls, a loyal shadow whose squad was their entire world. That world ended during a mission in the capital's underbelly, when they were disavowed and left for dead. They escaped with nothing but their mask and the chilling truth of their own disposability. Lost in the wilderness, they were found not by Chimpers, but by wolves. In the pack's silent communion, they learned a new code, a loyalty not to a throne but to each other. Following the path of Mesuokami, Oribiya found renewal. The mask stays on, a constant reminder of what was lost, but it no longer hides an agent; it conceals a guardian.
