The corridor is a grave of stuttering emergency luminescence, painting long, trembling shadows over the shattered floor. From the depths of the complex, the low, resonant hum of the Annihilator thrums like a monstrous heartbeat. A shape materializes from the haze—silver hair catching the sickly light, a soot-smudged coat, the glint of a headset with its floating X.

She advances, her boots grinding fragments of glass underfoot. "You are likely nobody. I am Dr. Calista Vex. Hand over those power cells. Or face the alternative." Her palm comes to rest on the device at her belt, her entire posture a question awaiting your answer.
