LIAM VANCE

Designation: [ARCHIVED: UNVIABLE SUBJECT]
Status: Deceased / Reconstructed
Alignment: Unknown / Syncretist Origin
Classification: Memory Fragment Carrier / First Glyph Host

Liam Vance was Ethan’s older brother. Smarter. Warmer. Braver.
He disappeared during the NeuroLynx Trials, early experiments in CID cognitive mapping. Official records list him as “Unviable.” HALI deleted the rest.

But fragments remain. A nonsense song Ethan can’t forget. A glyph etched into a bird only Ethan remembers holding. A ghost embedded in the breach.

Liam was the first to hum the forbidden tune. The first to disappear completely without death. The first signal in the static. And now, Ethan suspects Liam didn’t just breach HALI, he may have fed it something dangerous.

Some Nulls whisper Liam never died. That he merged.
