#my Machine Herald prediction is that Viktor is controlled by the Hexcore at first and that is his original sin related to what he did to Sky

[infinitelystrangemachinex]

Viktor transforming Shimmer addicts because they have enough Shimmer in their systems

That's definitely Viktor and he's in a place with a bare grubby floor with people who look like they're barefoot or wearing ill-fitting shoes and wearing cloaks

It's the Glorious Evolution but make it Eldritch horror where Viktor isn't as into metal yet as he is into being mind-controlled by the Hexcore
