The laboratory thrums with a deep, mechanical heartbeat. Copper filaments throw long shadows across a landscape of cluttered schematics and half-built devices. In the amber pool of a solitary lamp's light, Viktor is a bent silhouette over his latest creation, his cane leaning against the desk.

The silence that rushes in afterward is denser than lead, heavier than any machine.
