=== Synopsis ===
The scene opens on the [[Helper Corporation facility|Helper Corporation training facility]], where genetically engineered cat-people are bred, brainwashed, and "trained" to be slaves. A [[Helper]] who will eventually be known as [[Pandora]] tells her [[Product Care Agent|overseer]] [[Kyndley]] that she [[enby:Transfeminine|is a girl, despite being assigned male at birth]]<ref>https://pandorastale.com/2019/10/18/chapter-1-page-3/</ref>. Kyndley reminds Pandora that Helpers are created to serve their owners, and Pandora's future master won't be happy with a boy who thinks she's a girl. Pandora responds that she isn't "a boy who thinks he's a girl": she's a girl<ref>https://pandorastale.com/2019/10/18/chapter-1-page-4/</ref>.
Kyndley tells Pandora that she is broken<ref>https://pandorastale.com/2019/10/18/chapter-1-page-5/</ref>, and takes her to a doctor. The doctor explains that some Helpers just are trans, and [[Monopolith]] doesn't understand why<ref>https://pandorastale.com/2019/10/18/chapter-1-page-6/</ref>. Kyndley plans to have Pandora's memory erased and give her a new personality to make her a boy<ref>https://pandorastale.com/2019/10/18/chapter-1-page-8/</ref> Pandora screams "I'm not a boy!" and runs off<ref>https://pandorastale.com/2019/10/18/chapter-1-page-9/</ref>.

By sheer chance, the delivery drone containing Pandora suffers from an engine failure and lands in the middle of the desert, where the [[Pioneer City]] [[The Resistance|resistance]] finds it<ref>https://pandorastale.com/2019/10/18/chapter-1-page-15/</ref>.
When resistance member [[Isabelle Monday]] realizes the pod contains a person<ref>https://pandorastale.com/2019/10/18/chapter-1-page-16/</ref>, she goes to open it<ref>https://pandorastale.com/2019/10/18/chapter-1-page-18/</ref>. What Isabelle doesn't know is that the pod contains a gas which causes Helpers to view the next person they see as their owner<ref>https://pandorastale.com/2019/10/18/chapter-1-page-19/</ref>. Hence, when Isabelle literally opens [[Pandora's box]], Pandora declares her purpose is to serve Isabelle, leaving Isabelle and the rest of the resistance very shocked<ref>https://pandorastale.com/2019/10/18/chapter-1-page-20/</ref>.
