Act One: The Wanderer and his Shadow
(Scott Avery)
In most ways, the room you just entered looks much like any other. A simple bed in one corner and a desk in the other. On a shelf above a desk are various memorabilia from his research. Cells in a tube, purportedly belonging to an alien, a plant found on an an otherwise deserted planet and several, different coloured rocks.
Papers and pencils are scattered in quite some disorder on the desk, figures and texts concerning his research on them. Much to your surprise, there are also a number of books in the room. One is lying on the table and several others are standing on shelves all around the room. You only notice a single datapad, which is lying next to the notes on the desk.
