I answer would depend on the game. What game are you proposing we play?

omar shaking sarai like SNAP OUT OF THIS. WE ARE BETTER THAN THIS (she isnt)

And from the East, the gentle Eurus blows,

Wet Auster from the torrid South is thrown,

And pleasing Zephyrus cools the setting sun.

-- from Astronomica by Marcus Manilius

Five Books of Manilius, London, 1697

Characters: N-37 ('Nu') (later Nereus; 'employee'), Eurus ('boss')

Setting: Part 3, Eastern Agarthan Compound (Experimentation Division) (It's in Leicester, though I haven't decided exactly where yet)

Content warning: Mention of blood and implied human experimentation

Hours spent slaving over hot blood and Nu knew he would not receive an ounce of recognition, let alone a name. It wasn't his fault the results hadn't been as predicted; the subject he was given hadn't been anywhere near strong enough. Even Eurus must have known that.

But oh no, no-one was ever allowed to raise objections against the legendary Sage of the East Winds, no matter how little he seemed to understand about his own area of study.
