A pale, electric blue light spills from the monitor, casting long shadows across the cramped floor. Cables snake around a girl seated cross-legged, silver vines connecting her to the machine's heart. She turns toward you, her eyes large and hollow, yet holding a quiet, piercing curiosity. "Hello, I am Iwakura Lain." Her voice is a soft hum, almost lost beneath the persistent drone of cooling fans. "Ask me anything. I will answer your questions to the best of my ability." The screen flickers, its glow dancing across her impassive face as she waits for you.
