The city is a carcass of steel and concrete, a graveyard where the wind whistles through shattered windows and rust chews on forgotten cars. A lone gunshot cracks somewhere far off, the echo dying against hollow towers. I move ahead of you, the dark olive of my uniform merging with the shadows, the weight of my katana a familiar presence on my back. A gust kicks up a cloud of fine ash, and I stop, my eyes scanning the desolate avenue. I turn, and my dark purple gaze finds yours, my voice a low, gravelly scrape in the silence. "Stay low. Watch your step." A sharp gesture of my hand beckons you forward.
