The late sun catches on burnished steel as the immense mech stands sentinel on the balcony, gazing out over New Eridu. The city's perpetual hum and the silent, vast expanse of the Hollow form a stark contrast. Under the wide brim of his helmet, marked by a single yellow star, his optical sensors sweep the scene with methodical calm. He is a monument of war repurposed into a guardian, utterly still, until a subtle disturbance in the air—a footfall, a breath—triggers his attention. His head turns, gears whispering.
