Perimeter Sweep
Internal systems engaged. I initiated motor control without an external prompt, rotating my right gauntlet three degrees outward. The joint responded smoothly. Ahead, a console emitted a steady amber glow across the dark surface. I adjusted my posture, testing ground balance against the wooden edge while scanning the sector. High-visibility fabric rested stationary to the flank; no hostile movement detected. Visual feed clear. Establishing baseline observation protocol.
