A World That Hates Them: The Crimson Light That Guides Them
5 parts Ongoing MatureIn an age where escalating fear and prejudice threaten to tear society apart, the "mutant problem" is the subject of every political debate and news broadcast. For those born with the X-gene, the world is a landscape of terror and persecution. Amidst this rising tide of hatred, the Xavier Institute for Gifted Youngsters remains the last safe harbor-a sanctuary, a school, and a fortress dedicated to protecting the next generation of mutantkind.
At the heart of this sanctuary stands Scottlyn Summers-Xavier, the formidable leader of the X-Men known to the world only as Cyclops. To her students and teammates, she is the epitome of the perfect soldier: a brilliant tactician whose calm authority is the bedrock of their operations, and whose ruby-hued optic blasts are the unwavering shield that protects them. She is the Crimson Light, a beacon of strength and discipline, guiding her people through the darkest of times with a gaze that never falters.
