That night had been a rainy night. Tonight, as the storm approached, she recalled a similar night two years before. Before so much had happened.<br/><br/>Greta took the post at Lake Heart Asylum to do real work. She was tired of the Academic circle; it was dry and oppressive. She knew her professional resume, a curriculum vitae in the science world, would show that under light scrutiny. She struggled to keep most of her positions for more than a year. At the age of 34, that sort of job moving did not look good. In academics it would pass easier than the clinical world. She was going to have to stick it out here.<br/><br/>She was excited she was going to spend some time with real clinical cases. She looked forward to testing and applying some of her more controversial methods at the Asylum. It was off the map far enough that she could expect some latitude in her methodological approaches. As an independent facility, she intended to do her work without the approval of the Review Boards that examined the ethics and procedures of scientific research. Hell, she figured she was free enough that she wouldn’t even need to report to the Animal Care and Use Committees (IACUC).<br/><br/>When she pulled in front of the building, she pushed her pencil into the knot that held her thick blonde hair restrained. She took her bag from the cab and paid the driver. Her laboratory equipment and other boxes would be delivered by a courier service in the morning. She hurried into the building, eying the approaching storm. She stepped inside just as the first heavy splatters of rain began to fall. That storm looked like it was going to be a bad one. She entered the foyer and called "Doctor Ignatius?"<br/><br/>
