Renner Alvous felt increasingly less in tune with his environment.
As an elite Terran mech pilot and a test pilot for the Arboreal Project, Renner never felt as detached as now.
It was as if a dark filter had attached itself to his mind. Everything he saw, felt or tasted gradually became less stimulating to him. It was as if he was living in a monochrome universe where dull and boring had become the norm.
This sense of detachment had sapped him of his drive and motivation. He used to feel so excited about becoming the first to pilot an incredibly innovative Carmine biomech designed by the founder of the Red Collective himself!
