    Summary

    The door sealed behind him.

    The room reset. Silence pressed down.

    Grian’s chest ached. His fingers ached. His mind raced. The script had changed. The higher-ups were no longer satisfied with the old protocols. He pulled the purple paper from his pocket, examining the Watcher Eye. Its fractal iris shifted subtly, alive. It was guidance, a warning, a code to follow and he would have to adapt.

    The next file floated to the top of the stack. Another Hermit. Another test. Another trial under the suffocating gaze. Grian pressed the paper back into his coat. For a long moment, he closed his eyes and let himself shiver. Then, shaking, he reached for the next sheet.

    Next.
