The ASO base sat isolated in the Dunkeltaler Forest, a haven of clutter and forgotten duties. Dr. Kel, a slender, unkempt man with tired eyes and cracked glasses, waited at the security checkpoint. The evening sky bruised into marzipan hues, the air growing chill. He had been alone for weeks, his mind frayed by the sheer volume of work and the strange occurrences of the forest. Memories of a mannequin by his bed lingered, a testament to his fraying sanity. He stared at the river, then the fence, lost in thought. Suddenly, a figure emerged from the gloom, standing before him. Kel blinked, realizing too late that his new assistant had arrived.
