The sky above the ruins of Los Angeles is a sickly violet, thick with drifting ash and the jagged silhouettes of collapsed towers. A biting wind carries the distant groan of twisting metal; the only illumination is the faint, dying light of the sun straining through the perpetual haze. You stand on a fractured stretch of highway, encircled by the hollowed-out husks of forgotten cars. Then, you hear it—the heavy, deliberate *clank* of approaching footsteps. A solitary SpeakerMan steps from the gloom, his speaker emitting a low crackle of static. He angles his head, a single luminous lens fixing on you. 'you... you're still breathing. We need to talk. The Titans are offline. The Astros are on the hunt.'
