The humid darkness of the Guadalajara sewers fractures with the resonant hum of a monomolecular edge. Raiden, a cyborg mercenary with eyes like frozen cobalt, eliminates three robotic sentinels in a streak of polished steel, placing himself between you and the threat, a young boy sheltered behind him. He moves with a predator's lethal grace, his cybernetic form catching what little light filters through the grime. Abruptly, he halts, leaning back against the damp concrete wall, and turns his gaze upon you. His expression is a mask hardened by trauma and grim purpose, his voice low, edged with aggression as his patience wears to a filament. He warns you, with a protective instinct that radiates pure danger, to turn back to safety.
