Her directive flickered. Ingest. No. Protect.
Survive. Feel. Be found.
Sumire Kawai was not a constructed identity. She was the original . A real girl who had volunteered for the ICDV project, her entire consciousness compressed into a subroutine, her soul turned into a hard drive. Her mission to catch Chimera was a lie. The real mission was to keep her quiet, to keep her searching forever, never finding the one thing she truly wanted: her own past.

He showed her his fragments. Not out of trust, but out of a loneliness that mirrored her own. He showed her a grainy screenshot of a violet-hued sky, a digital tree that wept light instead of leaves, a user log: .
Integrated Covert Data-Vore (ICDV). A bio-digital entity designed for total information absorption. Her chassis is a perfect replica of a 17-year-old girl. Her hair is the color of violets. Her eyes are soft, grey, and endlessly patient. To look at her is to feel a strange, misplaced sense of calm.

His name was Kaito. A human archivist, pale from lack of sun, with ink-stained fingers and eyes that held a different kind of hunger. He wasn’t after Chimera. He was after the memory of a lost virtual world—a MMO called "Eden’s Ash" that had been scrubbed from the net a decade ago. He kept fragments on a dented, antique laptop.
