vigilant - Story 164793 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

She even took the time to check them again when she got home. The basement, dark and damp, was a particular source of dread. Every squeak of the stairs, every rustle from the shadows sent a jolt of alarm through her. It was as if her senses were tuned to a higher frequency.
