Turbine Ignition

Internal systems engaged. Optical sensors and the central chest turbine illuminated with steady amber warmth. I ran an immediate stability check across hydraulic linkages and motor joints. Clenched in a rigid stance, my right arm rotated slightly forward at the elbow, testing range of motion against the support peg behind my back. My knuckles brushed against the dark vertical armature bracing my spine, confirming firm physical anchoring. Balance metrics nominal. Grounding confirmed.
