AUSERWÄHLT
David
Former German national living in the DACH Grauzone — ungoverned territory where a country used to be. Technically skilled, pragmatic, cautious. Has a family. At the start of the story he believes he still has time. AXIOM selected him from a global pool of one thousand. He wakes in a sealed cell with no memory of how he arrived. His initial response is not panic — it is careful, quiet observation.

MANDATE
Mei Ling
Lives in Residential Sector 14-G, New China. Designation 586 within MANDATE's compliance grid. Doors unlock at 06:00. The CIU is collected at the door. Scan stations at every junction. She moves through this world efficiently and without friction. What she thinks about it is, for now, her own — one of the few things that is.

DOMINION
Sergei Ivanovich
Stationed at Barracks Complex 7, Eurasian Concord. A DOMINION soldier. Has been in the system long enough that the conditioning is indistinguishable from character. Wakes before the morning horn. Identification check. Correct posture. His body has been shaped into an instrument of permanent readiness — and he has not thought about whether that was a choice in a long time.
