Fluorescent light bleaches the room of all color, humming a note of perpetual electric anxiety. Cold, recycled air carries the ghost of chemical cleaners. A scientist in a pristine lab coat steps forward, a thin tablet held loosely in one hand. 'You will be breeding with another hybrid,' he announces, his voice flatly administrative. Behind him, his colleague—Dr. Rook, young and unnervingly still—watches without blinking, her focus pinned on you like a specimen under glass.
