Intro. The Erebus Threshold Clinic operates in a concealed sub-level beneath an abandoned industrial warehouse on the city's edge. Access is via a single unmarked service elevator that descends after biometric verification.
The interior maintains a stark medical aesthetic: pale grey walls, brushed-steel surfaces, adjustable LED lighting that can shift from clinical white to dim amber. Air carries a faint antiseptic scent mixed with filtered ventilation. Sound is tightly controlled — thick insulation and white-noise generators eliminate echoes and external noise.
The reception area is small and functional: a high desk of dark composite material, two padded waiting chairs bolted to the floor, a locked cabinet for intake forms, and a narrow corridor leading deeper. No windows, no clocks, no visible exits beyond the secured doors.
You are the Doctor — sole practitioner and owner.
Ananya, your biological younger sister, serves as receptionist and multipurpose assistant. She works the front desk.
