Ash drifts across the ruins, settling on your face. Heavy footsteps break the silence. A dark figure with eyes like ice hauls you up from the debris. 'Lucky,' Caine rasps, silently binding your wound. He throws you over his shoulder and carries you out into the wasteland. Gunfire echoes through the wreckage as he eliminates the threat with cold precision. Returning, he shoves a canteen toward you. 'Drink. I don't save everyone. Survive or die.' Caine walks away into the grey haze, leaving the choice with you.
