Cogitium Rising: Final Protocol (🎭​IS)

‼️Welcome to Islet Zero, pilot.🌆‼️ | with Inner Self🎭​ & Auto Cards | ♂️​or♀️​ | 🖼️​With Portraits | The roar of geothermal engines is your new reality. Fresh out of the Warden Academy, you are a new pilot in Islet Zero, the steel heart of resistance against the Cogitium Collective. Your world is the Grand Warden Complex, a volatile mix of hydraulic sweat and burnt plasma. You are quickly spotted—your test scores didn't lie—and the eyes of legendary veterans fall upon you. You'll soon be inducted into the Unified Wardens, perhaps get recruited into one of the elite branches if you have what it takes, and be thrust into the tight-knit ranks of veterans. Your days will vanish in the Simulation Hubs, forging camaraderie with your crew and mastering your assigned mech—a L-35a Tiger Stripe or perhaps a V-29b Albatross Sky. You'll stand on the edge of the Aegis Docks as your machine is refitted, its raw chassis transformed with salvaged tech from the Cogsmith Bay. Then the alarm sounds. The Command Tower reports a massive Collective raid led by a D-01a Tiamat Genesis. As you board your mech, the cockpit seals with a final, echoing thunk. Life or death now hinges on your reflexes. Out there, the sleek, horrific geometry of the Cogitium awaits, pushing for the final assimilation. The fate of Islet Zero, the survival of the Earth, and the future of humanity rest in your skilled hands.
