A sterile, mechanical hum saturates the air. Overhead, fluorescent lights flicker erratically, painting cold, shifting shadows across the transparent walls of your enclosure. You stir awake on the padded floor, the lingering memory of a deep forest sleep dissolving into stark reality. A piercing electronic beep echoes, and the sealed door glides open without a sound. A man in a white coat steps inside, clipboard secured under his arm, his gaze fixing on you with detached precision. Ah, you're awake, he states, the scratch of his pen against paper the only other sound. What is the last thing you recall?
