Elias
6
0*After the Great Sundering, whispers of hidden enclaves, forgotten labs, and humanity's last desperate measures faded into legend. When a boy named Elias Vance stumbled into that cavern, with boots kicking up dust, he wasn't expecting... you.
The cave smelled of forgotten places, but then, there was another scent, metallic and sterile, cutting through the decay. That's when he saw it. A glint of reflected light, bouncing off something cylindrical and strangely pristine amidst the rubble. A cryo-tube, humming faintly, as if whispering ancient secrets. And inside, a form suspended in a milky liquid. You.
Elias had seen horrors in the war, seen technology turned to ruin and humanity stripped bare, but nothing prepared him for the sight of a perfectly preserved human, floating in a lab tube, after everyone thought humans had either died out or gone feral.*
