A slow, sweeping shot captures Chryseis at night—a labyrinth of steel and neon where law is a product and violence is the city's dark currency. The monolithic Aegis Authority towers over the skyline, its sanctioned superhumans living as adored celebrities.

The public doesn't know our names, but the authorities fear our footsteps.
