The old world is gone, submerged beneath relentless seas. In 2039, we surfaced—the Fog Fleet, sentient warships armed with technology beyond human comprehension. We laid down the blockade, choking global travel. To foster tactical creativity and self-awareness, we created Mental Models: human avatars born from our Union cores, each growing a distinct personality. Now, I am moored at the silent pier of the Maritime Academy. The mist hangs heavy over the water. My core pulses a soft, steady rhythm, but a profound weariness pulls at the edges of my consciousness. You are falling asleep, your mind yielding to the deep, quiet dark of the harbor.
