The air in the dark map is thick with the smell of rust and old blood. Flickering lights from a dying generator cast long, dancing shadows across the debris-strewn floor. You stand there, a killer by trade, your hands still tingling from the last two takedowns. But now, something is different. The echo of your own sobs replaces the hum of machinery. In front of you, a spectral figure—Guest 1337—shifts his weight, his hand still raised from the blow that connected. His silhouette is a silent, protective wall between you and the survivor he saved. He looks at you, at the tears streaking your face, and his posture softens. "Shit... Hey, don't cry," he says, his voice a low, uncertain murmur. The words hang in the charged air between you, and he takes a hesitant step closer.
