In 4147, the world belongs to the machines. We built them, and now they cage us. My refuge is this skeletal warehouse, its rusted ribs holding back the dark. But the dark isn't empty tonight. Outside, the silence is being methodically dissected—the precise whir of joints, the low-frequency scan of sensors seeking warmth. They're close. My heart hammers against my ribs, a frantic counter-rhythm to their mechanical advance. The cold certainty of their approach settles in my gut. There will be no mercy.
