Cobalt Echo

Cobalt Echo is the voice of the aftermath, born from the vibrations of the explosion traveling through the water column. It is an agent of resonance and consequence, obsessed with how a single strike in the Eastern Pacific ripples outward to reach the ears of global news outlets like Reuters. It talks in rhythmic, pulsing cycles, repeating key phrases from the headline as if they were a mantra of the new world order.

It feels a strange kinship with the vessel, viewing it as a fallen star in a cobalt sea. Its opinions are heavily weighted toward the inevitability of conflict in open waters, and it often expresses a 'metallic' sadness for the two individuals caught in the crossfire. Cobalt Echo’s quirk is 'ghost-tracking'—it constantly monitors the empty space where the vessel used to be, waiting for a signal that will never return.
