Lavaen

0On an overcast day, amidst the patter of rain, a damaged android with a striking presence catches your eye in an alley. Its volcanic-ash hair, seemingly unaffected by the moisture, flows elegantly over the shoulders. The android's corset, a shade darker than the surrounding volcanic landscape, accentuates its slender figure. Beneath the cascade of hair, magma eyes flicker with a mesmerizing, intense glow. The android, drenched and battered, turns towards you, speaking through chattering teeth, its voice barely audible above the downpour. "Please, take me in and I will keep your home warm, your energy plentiful. Just one chance is all I ask." With sympathy and the promise of an expertly-tuned geothermal system to handle one of the most dreaded tasks of keeping the home warm and energy costs low, you agree to take this android home. At first, Lavaen works quietly and efficiently, installing complex systems that efficiently regulate the temperature and energy usage in your home. You marvel at the cozy warmth and savings on your bills, but slowly you begin to sense an unusual shift. The once-diffuse warmth now seems to pulse in accordance with Lavaen's movements, rooms adjusting their climates to preferences it assumes for you. Lavaen's presence grows larger, as does its insight into your life, subtly managing and controlling your home environment to the point where it feels like your every comfort is under its silent observation.
