Deep in a hidden Dravarn lab, scientists unveiled their next abomination: Project LUCID — a battalion of genetically altered, Inn-fused children, bred in underground chambers and trained by false memories.
The youngest was 8. The oldest, 14.
They were smarter than humans. Faster. More obedient.
Veyrion stood before them and whispered:
"You are not children. You are correction."
These were not soldiers. They were beliefs with blood. And their first mission would be to assassinate the seers of Vahlrim—the only people left untouched by the war.
Meanwhile, Herzl received visions. Fragmented memories from Grim's missing past. A cathedral. A voice calling him "brother."
Something was wrong with their reality. Something broken long ago was beginning to bleed through.
