In Morning Star, the Prisoner Muzzle appears as a cruel instrument of suppression, a heavy metal device strapped across captives' faces with buckles and padding to enforce silence and prevent biting. Its violent application, often causing nasal bleeding, underscores the brutal methods employed by antagonists to dehumanize and control prisoners amid the escalating rebellion. The muzzle symbolizes the physical and psychological oppression central to the saga's conflicts, highlighting the lengths to which power structures go to silence dissent. Though confined to this installment, its stark design leaves a lasting impression on the themes of resistance and captivity.
