"The Training of O------Tia Ling day01 -8992-" is a study in the erosion of the self. By the end of the first day, the subject is no longer the person who walked through the door.

Stations gleamed with the ordered promise of algorithms: targets with shifting vectors, obstacles that folded and unfolded according to preprogrammed impatience, weights that accepted the weight of intention. At the center of it all was a podium with a holographic slate projecting the day’s metrics: balance, endurance, precision, adaptation. Her name blinked into place beside a serial: O------Tia Ling — #8992.
