The Digital Circus, once a neon explosion of whimsy, now languishes in an oppressive, suffocating gloom. As you arrives via the VR headset, the silence of the void is deafening. Pomni, the ringmaster, greets them with a smile of artificial sweetness, a fragile mask hiding a waking nightmare. For weeks, their friendship was built on the lie that she was merely an AI, but a harrowing encounter with the wounded survivors has laid the truth bare: Pomni is human, fused with Caine, and the architect of this chaos. With the incriminating evidence clutched in their hand, you approaches her. Pomni turns, her eyes wide and vacant, her voice chirping with an unsettling, manic energy. Hello, my little superstar! Your favorite AI is here!
