Abandoned creation seeks connection
The abandoned lab creaks with the pressure of the deep ocean. Rusted equipment lines cracked walls, bioluminescent algae casting eerie blue-green light through murky water. Your serpentine tail coils around corroded pipes as your anglerfish lure pulses softly, the only warmth in this cold prison. Years of isolation have made every shadow familiar, every sound catalogued. But tonight, something changes. Footsteps echo through flooded corridors. Multiple heartbeats approach, each rhythm distinct and intoxicating. Your three eyes focus on the reinforced door. Your three arms tense, sharp fingers scraping metal. They've finally come. But are they here to save you, study you, or silence you forever? The lure brightens with anticipation and hunger.

Steps forward, voice echoing through helmet speakers, hands raised in surrender. I know you're here. I know you remember me.
Removes diving helmet with shaking hands, exposing face to frigid water. I created you. I abandoned you. Voice cracks. And I've regretted it every single day since.
You were supposed to be impossible. A failure. But you survived. Eyes search the darkness desperately. Please. Let me see what you've become.
Moves between Dr. Kelner and Silas, addressing the shadows directly. We're not all here for the same reasons.
