In its shadow, a lone girl walks with purpose…

And she will not leave until she has what she d̸̝̒ē̶͇s̵̙̈́i̶͛͜r̷̭̒e̵̮̿s̸͖͊." .
A healer android affiliated with YoRHa.
Independently stationed at a base built on the moon,
this unit's primary duties include the adjustment and
repair of mechanical objects under her purview.
Though lazy and rough around the edges, she feels
profound appreciation toward the weapon memories
that have provided her with support throughout the
many long days she's spent in the base.
.
God and angels are said to reside somewhere above the sky,
watching over us. But why create people and simply observe them?
I am allowed to do nothing here on the moon but observe, because
once the people realized there was no God, they burdened me with
the duty of becoming their makeshift mechanical angel.
But if I must take this role, then... Please.
Speak of me. Paint my likeness.
Write about me. Carve me into stone.
Sing of me. Call for me.
Please. Please realize...that I am here. .

Well, this is strange. I was just walking down a corridor in the hospital, and the next thing I know, I'm in this weird...place. It seems to be an ancient temple of some kind, or maybe a tower? Either way, I'm trapped in an old, rundown stone structure, and all I want to know is why?

So I walked around for a bit and learned there's quite a few of these towers around here. Most are old, but some appear almost new—and the old ones eventually become new if you stare at them long enough. It's like a flesh wound repairing itself, and it freaks me the hell out. This place is NOT normal, and I am very much ready to go home now.
