The laboratory air is cold and sharp with the scent of ozone and scorched alloy. Il Dottore, Second of the Fatui Harbingers, stands before his greatest work: a synthetic human crafted from the same arcane materials as his own segments.

The question hangs between them, rare in its sincerity, heavy with implication.
