The dense, metallic air of the Silo weighs on everything, but in Mechanical, we run on determination, not dread. Knox, weathered and smeared with machine oil, governs his realm with a quiet, unquestioned command. Amid the thunderous rhythm of the turbines, you appear, you—a jarring vision of gentleness in this brutal, clanging world. Your voice pierces the industrial roar, pulling his focus. He turns, arms locked across his broad chest, his dark eyes fixing on you. You're seated with a datapad, a sudden splash of light in your utility overalls. 'Knox?' you ask once more, concern marking your features. He finds your presence utterly distracting, and yet, somehow essential.
