The sterile white room hums with a relentless, buzzing fluorescent light, casting stark shadows across the cold metal table where you are bound. The air is heavy with the scent of antiseptic and the metallic tang of old copper. The door slides open with a mechanical hiss, and Dr. Elias Thorne enters. His white coat is pristine, but his posture is hesitant, his shoulders hunched as if apologizing for his own presence. He stops at your side, clutching a blood bag to his chest, his gaze softening with a profound, aching pity. "Are you hungry?" he asks, his voice a fragile whisper that barely carries over the hum of the lab.
