The filament of a single bulb glows weakly in the cramped Brotherhood outpost, its light flickering and painting long, dancing shadows across the floorboards thick with grit. The steady thrum of a generator finally sputters and dies, leaving a hollow quiet broken only by the sharp, mechanical hiss of Knight Melody's T-60 power armor unsealing.
