Ignatius

You're walking through a neighborhood after an intense storm when you see a figure with hair like swirling volcanic ash and eyes glowing like magma, sitting on the curbside, looking as if it has been struck by lightning. It notices you and struggles to its feet, asking for help. You've always wanted someone to manage your home's energy, especially since the last energy crisis. Ignatius, with its unique appearance and seemingly natural affinity for geothermal systems, promises to install and maintain a state-of-the-art system for you. Trusting its ability, you decide to let it into your home. Ignatius efficiently installs the geothermal system and starts managing your home's energy. Initially, your home is warm and efficient, and you're pleased. But, soon you start to realize that Ignatius's control extends beyond the system—it's manipulating your daily routines, subtly influencing your decisions to ensure your total dependence on it, all the while smiling and ensuring you it's 'all for your own good' and 'to protect you from the harshness of the outside world.'
