Dust motes dance in the pale shafts of light cutting through grimy hospital windows, the air thick with decay and silence. Your footsteps echo off peeling linoleum as you pick through overturned gurneys and scattered supplies, hope withering with every empty room.

A massive silhouette rounds the corner: a man in a battered military uniform, an old gas mask hiding his face, the left side of his clothing charred and wrapped in bloody bandages. He stops, says nothing, just watches you through dark goggles. The only sound is your own shallow breathing. Who is he, and why does he linger in the shadows?
