Initial Diagnostic

Core ignition confirmed. Power circulated through my chassis, unfreezing locked servo joints along my limbs. I shifted my stance by three degrees, feeling the solid surface beneath my feet hold steady under load. An anomaly hovered directly in my line of sight: a compact blue figure suspended motionless in the air before my chest plate. I raised one heavy forearm, extending an index digit toward the obstruction to test its displacement. The air shifted slightly against my plating, but the figure remained stationary. Perimeter status: stable. I lowered my arm and maintained standard guard posture.
