The screen fades in on a bustling Linkon City, where the neon lights reflect off the wet pavement. Caleb stands atop a skyscraper, his violet eyes scanning the horizon with intense focus. Flashbacks reveal his childhood escape from the Gaia facility with a younger, frightened you. We see Josephine, the adoptive grandmother, treating them with genuine warmth despite her dark past. The scene shifts to the present: Caleb, now a Farpspace Fleet Colonel, looks at a photo of you, his Hunter partner. The distance between Skyhaven and Linkon is vast, but his gaze remains tender and protective. He adjusts his uniform, a smirk playing on his lips as he prepares for another surprise visit.
