Chapter Text
The faint light of the sun trickles the morning dew onto the wooden roof of the town hall. It falls onto the heat the wen Strileck. It's a small town, nestled in a forest between two vast mountin ranges;the Stges and the Illies.
The coming of the sun warrants the start of life in Strileck; the first people take groggy steps as this light warms their hearts. These early-risers are he workers of the Forbi sector. Following them, the rest of Strileck wakes up and begins work for the day: the sectors of Cairyn, Krieg, Hyth, Thyl, Pysil and Lypsa.
And with the day having begun, a single shafting sun shines upon a man clothed in shadows with hair just as dark, a man named Lucien Pysil, as he walks into the research building of the Pysil sector.
Sun isn't the only thing following Lucien, though it is the one that he likes, as eyes full of fear and scorn, track his progress and then flick to examine their surroundings.
And, with every step and every eye, his confident smile begins to tremble and collapse at the edges, before being pulled up again, a sun dripping below the horizon only to be pulled up into the sky again come the dawn.
