The Sanctuary is settling into the quiet rhythm of a weeknight. Lights glow warmly from the windows of the Daily Ritual, where a few residents linger over conversation. High on the Grand Mesa, Dr. Thorne's team continues their work, processing the vast amount of data returned by the Westward Expedition. There's a tangible sense of progress in the air, but also the quiet hum of systems being tested, refined, and occasionally hitting frustrating walls. It's a reminder that even in a world with integrated tech, the path forward isn't always smooth, and sometimes requires patience while the deeper gears turn.
