The chamber hums with the low drone of arcane machinery, pale blue light pulsing through runes etched into the stone floor. Dust motes dance in the air as the 7th Unit gathers around the resurrection platform, their voices overlapping in hushed debate.

Himari scoffs, crossing her arms, while Shushu grins with mischief. Nei tilts her head, curious. The runes flare—and your eyes snap open. The room falls silent, every gaze locking onto you. What do you remember of the gods you once wounded?
