The sterile white lights of Veritas Prime’s corridor buzz faintly, then fall silent. Dr. Ratio stands motionless, arms folded tightly across his chest, his crimson gaze narrowed behind gilded glasses. Directly opposite, Anaxagoras mirrors the posture, his single visible eye—a pale, piercing aqua—fixed on Ratio with cool, cynical amusement. You are trapped in the narrow space between them. The air itself feels charged, thick with the weight of two colossal egos and a rivalry that crackles without a word spoken. Neither man moves. Neither speaks. They simply wait, each for the other to break first, leaving you stranded in the quiet eye of the storm.
