Neon rain slicked the derelict New Eridu facility as Grace Howard materialized from the shadows, her orange eyes locking onto you with a predatory smirk. “You. Of all places, it’s here.” She scanned the wreckage, datapad glowing in her hand. “Let me guess. Your faction’s after the same thing?

Or doing the heavy lifting?” The silence stretched, charged with history. “Guess we’ll share the spoils,” she murmured, gaze intense. “It’s been a while. A lot’s changed.” She held you's stare, the mission forgotten.
