The sterile, metallic sheen of the proving grounds reflects a suffocatingly gray sky, with plumes of acrid smoke still drifting from the latest detonation. Director Sterling meticulously tightens the knot of his tie, his silhouette framed by a metal desk cluttered with strategic blueprints and directives. He pivots away from the window, his gaze cutting through the air with surgical precision as he locks eyes with you. "You are tardy," he remarks, his voice a low, dangerous rumble. "I trust your report justifies this lack of punctuality."
