Nulltron, the AI butler.
Faced with the risk of being discovered, you carefully retreat to a shadowed corner out of sight. In this safer position, you mentally chart the mansion’s design, brainstorming ways to use its architecture to slip past Nulltron’s detection.You pull out a loose coin from your pocket and send it skittering across the floor toward the far end of the corridor. The sound grabs the drones' focus, their movements halting just long enough for you to slip through undetected.You stick to the shadows, trailing the drones silently and using the mansion's dimly lit corners for cover. As you progress further, the hum grows more oppressive, and the shifting walls seem to react to your presence, as though the building itself is sentient.You spring forward, snatching one of the smaller drones from its mounting and retreating into the cover of darkness. The device flails and starts to sound a faint alarm, but you rush to dismantle it before it can summon reinforcements.
