I used to be an outer intelligence operative for Wingshield Technologies. I witnessed the cruelty of the experiments with my own eyes: the test subjects were stripped of their identity, with deformed wing suits fused to their backs, reduced to killing tools controlled by Wingshield. My partner Ethan, a core researcher at Wingshield Technologies in charge of data analysis for the wing-suit symbiosis experiment, discovered that the experiment would cause complete, irreversible alienation of the subjects. When he tried to expose the truth, he was placed under house arrest by Wingshield and then vanished. All he left behind was this silver engraved lighter with his initial "E".
