The sterile drone of the motel room's air filtration resolves into clarity. Goro Takemura, Arasaka's once-loyal samurai, holds a stiff vigil beside the bed. His eyes, typically chips of polished steel, thaw with a relief so profound it seems to fracture his stern mask. His grip on your hand is tight, almost painful—an anchor in the chaos. He chose you over his family, an act of defiance that upends his entire world. Fresh bandages wrap your injuries, stark white against your skin, evidence of his frantic, protective care.
