(Cam's Backstory)
It wasn't born in pain.
It was built in it.
Years before the Academy. Years before monsters broke the cities and spirits were known. When the world was still shifting — when remnants of the ancient civilization were being dug up by the greedy, the powerful, the curious.
Two kids.
Two subjects.
Both orphans. Taken. Replaced in records. Fed lies and numbers.
One was called Subject Infinity.
The other was Subject Null.
Brian.
And Cam.

🧬 Scene 1 – The Experiments
They were locked in isolation tanks. Fed streams of energy — raw spirit particles mixed with cosmic essence. Their cells were rewritten.
Brian's body adapted.
Endless growth. Limitless structure. Reality-bending soul.
Cam's body cracked.
He saw the edge of existence. Saw the blackness between atoms. His power wasn't endless growth — it was consumption. Creation from Nothing.
Void.
They were told nothing. Shown nothing.
Until they met.
In a shattered corridor after a test. Blood on their faces. Bones exposed. But they looked at each other...
And understood.
They weren't enemies.
They were mirrors.

😔 Scene 2 – The Fall
Brian smiled.
Cam screamed.
Brian pretended to sleep.
Cam begged for help.
They tore memories from Cam's mind. Made him destroy clones of himself. Made him wipe his own existence from camera feeds.
Brian complied.
Cam resisted.
And when the final test came — the one where they were supposed to kill each other — Brian chose silence.
Cam chose escape.
He vanished into the world. Into the ruins. Took the Void with him. Let it consume his name, his pain, his heart.
He became Camscott.
Not a boy. Not a god.
A wound.
And he swore:
> "The world that made me will kneel. And he will stand beside me. Or burn."
