Epilogue: A Single Flower in Ashes

Somewhere in District 1, in a vault even Seitenshi couldn't access, a small red light blinked to life on an untouched console. A technician—faceless, uniformed—stepped inside.

The data was corrupted.

But one fragment survived.

A name.

A voiceprint.

A memory.

"Subject 27: synchronization failed. Memory resilience exceeding threshold. Awaiting further instruction."

The technician tilted his head.

Then shut the vault.

And walked away.
