City gate.
As Asimov cut open the city wall with surgical chains,
the First Doctor, Gregory Alaus, clad in purple shirt and sunglasses, was the first to step in. His sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, revealing garishly colorful tattoos on his arms—a vibrant bouquet of flowers on his left, and on his right, a pair of dragons spewing flames and ice.
He was five hundred and thirty-one years old, and the reason he appeared so spirited and even youthful was due to one of the rare diseases he had contracted—"Complete Symbiotic Plant Parasitism."
The intervention of the plant had made him physically superior to humans, enduring and ageless.
As Alaus stepped into the city, the blood-fed plants that covered the streets withered away, replaced by fresh green vegetation.
He also spread his fingers and touched the ground, making various bright flowers bloom on the grass.
