Landel as sphinx chow had a nice ring to it. A grim smile spread across Aigis' face in the dark.

She followed Sechs and Taura up the stairs quietly, her steps barely making a sound. It was a taller staircase than the others around the institute, but these would go up two floors instead of just one.

"... Perhaps one of the rebels will know how, or another patient." That seemed almost too easy. Would that be possible to do, to reverse the effects on the Head Doctor? As Taura said, supposedly it was possible. Landel was too confident.
