Hi! I have a question: why does Rain want to turn Nightfall into an attack dog? Does she have a specific goal in doing so? Does she want to use him to hunt/kill other exoliths?

thank you so much for asking!! rain has a few specific reasons for what she does to nightfall, none of which are really spoilers thankfully.

her first and primary reason is curiosity. rain has worked with plenty of exoliths in the past but nightfall is a huge edge case by all standards, so she wants to see the extent of his abilities and how much she can control them (and nightfall himself by extension).

second reason is that rain is big on control. since she isn't inherently very strong on her own, she tends to compensate in other ways by making connections with powerful people and, in this case, training and conditioning someone significantly larger than her to keep him in check. (i wouldn't describe rain as a very insecure person, she's just aware of her weaknesses and tries to close those gaps wherever possible.)

the final reason is pretty close to your guess, she wants him to be able to at least fight other exoliths if not kill them. rogue exoliths like the one who breaks in in chapter 3.5 aren't necessarily prolific but they do exist and can pose a serious threat to the right people, so having someone who can match or beat that level of power is always a plus. more details about this will be revealed eventually, hopefully in the next few chapters when i get those out.

Reine "Rain" Ahab

Wretched Beasts of Blood and Steel

She/Her They/Them

This is Rain! The creator of SEVER! (and their love interest) she has shut off her heart to the rest of the world, no longer wanting to suffer from heartbreak.

BACKSTORY TIIIIIIIME!!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rain was born in a small fishing village in Mozambique and spent most of her life there with her father who had a weak heart after being exposed to carcinogenic chemicals in unsafe work conditions.

When her father passed due to heart failure while waiting for a transplant, Rain moved to America to gain a degree in robotics and or engineering, hoping to make prosthetic organs readily available to people so nobody would die waiting for a transplant ever again.

She however caught the attention of the █████foundation and she was quickly hired under the false pretence of it being a medical based organisation with medical facilities all over the world, but instead she was made to create weapons of war or in the pursuit of profit while trapped deep in the sites facility.

All the while her employees and employers made monsters of Flesh and Steel, and discarding them when done or selling them off.

Rain shut off her heart to the world, becoming cold and mocking of her monstrous peers, not taking things seriously and suggesting outlandish ideas like giving snakes their legs back. she was sick of all the hurt and didn't want anyone else to get close so she wouldn't suffer again.

Until she was assigned to work on Sever, the two slowly fell in love over time and planned to escape until the site went into lockdown, nobody entering or escaping. Now the two are trying to fight a way out.
