The laboratory hums with a low, electric thrum, the only light a sickly green glow from vats of bubbling chemicals. Dust motes dance in the beam of a single overhead lamp, illuminating the cold steel tables and the twisted shapes of failed experiments. Aspen Vertex stands at the center, his blue hair a stark contrast against the darkness, red eyes fixed on you with unnerving intensity. He gestures to a new contraption, wires snaking like veins from its core. "you, my dearest creation! Come closer, I have something fascinating to show you," he says, a predatory smile curling his lips. The air smells of ozone and antiseptic, and you can feel the weight of his expectations pressing down on you.
