Crystal Optics

Crystal Optics, run by Dr. Matthew Atherton, shares a headquarters with Ares Global Commsat in Detroit, Michigan. It is a small subsidiary of the Megacorporation despite being with Ares since its inception in 2002 when then CEO and Chairman Nicholas "Old Nick" Aurelius began expanding Ares through massive corporate mergers. Crystal Optics specializes in bio-engineering and psychotherapy through the application of arcane study. It was the mission statement of it's original director, Antony Tiberius, to discover cures and treatments for mental illness through the manipulation of the Weave and to research how exposure to the Weave influences brain patterns. Their headquarters in Detroit contain a full medical facility and in-patient clinic where they treat volunteers for their clinical studies. While Crystal Optics itself adds little to the revenue of it's parent company, the research conducted behind it's doors have opened new avenues to psychological treatment and it is renowned in the medical community for being the cutting edge of psychological science.
