Location: Grandpa Coop's Safe House, Craftsman's Quarter, Ring 6
Raven woke on the fourth day to discover she could finally open a door without destroying the handle.
Small victories.
She'd spent the night practicing fine motor control in her sleep—or at least, her subconscious had. Her hands moved with slightly more coordination now, her strength calibration improving through sheer repetition. The brain was adapting to the new body, building neural pathways that understood these enhanced capabilities.
But "slightly better" still meant she moved like someone wearing power armor for the first time. Functional, but far from graceful.
Time to push harder.
Raven had spent three days learning not to break things. Now she needed to learn what she could actually do with this transformed body. The Brenners wouldn't wait for her to be comfortable. When she emerged from hiding, she'd need to be ready for whatever they threw at her.
