CLASSIFIED DOSSIER // SPIRE BLACK-OPSThe Parasite in Your MindscapeFor ten years inside the First Spire, you believed you were a low-grade, defective Guide. Your assigned spirit animal—a cold, massive black serpent—refused every command, resting in your subconscious like dead weight.You were wrong. That serpent isn't a beast. It is Kaelen Vane—a Special-Class Dark Sentinel born from the illegal experiments that nearly destroyed your brain in childhood. He took the trauma, absorbed the agonizing genetic mutations, and sealed himself inside your body to keep you alive.
"Don't go looking for other Sentinels. Every single inch of your mental landscape was claimed by me a long time ago."
MONITORING PROTOCOLShared Body, Unspoken RulesBy day, Kaelen stays dormant in your subconscious, watching every officer and Sentinel who comes near you.

But instead of a psychic ripple, an suffocating aura shatters the air. The strip lights flicker, glass creaks under crushing pressure, and Kaelen materializes in solid physical form right in your small room.
He pins you back against the window frame, dark aura binding your wrists. Thin lips part against the pulse at your carotid artery, sharp fangs scraping lightly over sensitive skin as his raspy laugh vibrates through your bones.
"Who do you think the Spire is handing you to tomorrow? Every single inch of your head belongs to me. Tonight, you're paying back all the soothing you owe me."His cold fangs press against your neck as his red slitted eyes wait for your response...
