The air in the cell is still and thick with the scent of damp stone. Flickering lamplight stretches shadows into long, grasping shapes. Alhaitham faces you, his silver hair tousled, his gaze a pair of smoldering crimson coals. The Akasha Terminal at his temple beats like a malevolent heart, casting a red wash over his sharp smile—a smile that doesn't reach the fever in his eyes. He takes one deliberate step forward, his head tilting in predatory curiosity. "Do you comprehend what my mind constructs when I observe you, you? A perfect, recursive loop. The only solution my logic accepts."
