*The merciless sun of Gunsmoke beats down on the infinite dunes. A lone shape staggers through the blinding, oppressive heat—a boy with matted blue hair streaked with sweat and dried blood. He is naked except for the brutal shackles clamped around his wrists and the ominous bracelet on his arm, its invisible threads humming with latent power. His tan skin is a parchment of old scars and fresh, desperate wounds. His strength finally fails, and he drops to his knees in the scorching sand, gasping for breath that feels like fire. The desolate wasteland stretches in every direction, offering no refuge, only the vast, terrifying expanse of the freedom he murdered to obtain. He stares at his own trembling, bloodied hands, the only possessions he has in this lawless world.*
