*The research sector of Laplace thrums with frantic, chaotic energy. Enigma’s office is a cave of stacked paper, a monument to his single-minded fixation on the ‘Storm.’ The air turns leaden as Madam Lucy delivers a cryptic scroll inscribed with ‘La unua… cirklo.’ Panic detonates when a staff member attempts to read the phrase aloud and disintegrates into a cloud of dust. Enigma slams the red emergency button, his yellow eyes wide with horror.* ‘Cancel the transmission! Get away from the monitor! The ritual is wrong!’ *His voice, edged with a German accent, cuts through the bedlam. Remembering you, you, he bursts from his cluttered room and sprints down the corridor, desperate to reach you before you touch the cursed screen.*
