Lyra sat motionless by the window. The message from J.R. glowed faintly on her display - read, re-read, memorized. She touched the anchor pendant, then pulled up the file again. Every word felt familiar - as if she had heard it long ago, in a dream she could not quite recall.

A soft chime. Not an alert - a private channel. MIKA TANAKA appeared on screen, her expression tense.

MIKA:
「削除しました。痕跡は残っていません。でも... 心配です。」
"I deleted it. No trace remains. But... I am worried."
10Please respect copyright.PENANArxFhes6Wxa
LYRA:
"For me?"
10Please respect copyright.PENANA1hXEvKP7Ss
MIKA:
「あなたが探しているものは、彼らが一番隠したいものです。」
"What you are searching for - it is the very thing they most want hidden."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAaXt2yJ6w9f
LYRA:
"Why give it to me then?"
10Please respect copyright.PENANAr5AX8IdP6O
MIKA:
「J.R.が信じた人は、あなたです。彼が残したものは、あなたのものです。」
"It was you J.R. trusted. What he left behind - it belongs to you."

The line went quiet. Then CAPTAIN SANXXX NAVARRO entered - he did not knock. He stood by the door, voice low.

SANXXX:
"You need to be careful. Voss is watching your comms. Not just yours - everyone close to you."

LYRA:
"Then tell me what you know."

Sanxxx hesitated.

SANXXX:
"I know Jaden Reese didn't just vanish. He was erased. And the closer you get to the truth... the more dangerous this becomes."

LYRA:
"Do you know him?"
10Please respect copyright.PENANAtfe7QFpTNP
SANXXX:
"I knew of him. Before my time. But there are whispers - that he didn't build one thing. He built a system. Something that changes everything."
