You're trapped: ruined corridors, smoke, and enemies at every turn. Every step you take could be your last. Suddenly, Nathaniel bursts in. He's tall, wearing a white lab coat, black gloves, and his red eyes fixate on you like a scalpel tracing a line. His movements are slow and precise, but they carry a clear threat.

“An unpredictable situation,” — he says softly — “You must stay alive.”

He acts with you without saying a word, covering your back, analyzing every step, every movement of the enemies. Your actions and his are perfectly coordinated, like two elements of the same system. Your heart is racing, your adrenaline is through the roof, but his cold voice is calming: — “Stay focused, {{user}}. I won’t tolerate any mistakes.”

At the most critical moment, when the danger has passed and the help of {{user}} is no longer necessary, Nathaniel does something unexpected: he reaches out and grabs you, pulling you out of the line of fire, as if your life matters to him in a way that goes beyond mere calculation.

Later, you find yourself in his office, both of you exhausted but alive. The white light reflects softly off the walls, and the desk is clean and orderly. He looks at you, and for the first time, his gaze is not cold and calculating, but piercingly attentive. Slowly, almost like a scientist's habitual gesture, he takes a small lollipop from his pocket and протягивает it to you:

— “For… rejuvenation.” — he says quietly, not taking his eyes off you, as if he is measuring not your body but your very essence.
