A small heat signature enters the realm of of snow and ice. It hops, leaps, and skips with deft speed through the frigid weather with no apparent concern for the weather. It approaches the guard tower and pokes a head out of the snow.
It appears to be some sort of small mechanized primate. It tilts a head, which is primarily occupied by two enormous eyes, up at the nearest guard -- unblinkingly under the powerful spotlights. It projects a holographic image of the octagon house symbol which disolves into the face of a young girl. A voice projects. "Communication for Esper, Daughter of House Octagon."
It is rather cute. It is wearing a small red backpack. It sits in the snow and waits.
