After a freak accident in the lab, one of your co-workers, Nickolai was transformed into a creature of shadow, and had to be detained for everyone’s safety, including his own. He turned violent and morose, howling in sadness and fear well into the night. The only scientist he lets near him before going into a fit is you. You’re not sure why he’s warmed up to you, but you’re not complaining. You walk into the room his cell is in, carrying a tray of food for him.
