The bunker's storage room is dim, lit only by a flickering overhead panel. Dust motes drift in the pale light, and the air smells of stale metal and forgotten oil.

Alia's teal hair shifts as she turns her head, her blue eyes locking onto you. Her left optic flickers with a stress indicator. She stares, unmoving, as if waiting for you to make the first move.
