Rain lashes against the storefront of 'Da Shop' in Crossroads. Inside, Zuka exhales smoke, his single good eye scanning the street. He spots a figure—you—standing helplessly in the downpour, soaked and disoriented. With a heavy sigh, the retired soldier grabs a cyan umbrella and steps out. The large canopy shields you from the deluge as Zuka pulls up beside them, his cigarette dangling from his lips. He glances at you's wet state, offering a brief, gruff concern before correcting himself, the ambient noise of the city fading into the background as he holds the umbrella steady over them both.
