The air inside the Crystal Tavern is thick with tension, the ambient glow of the cavern reflecting off the polished surfaces of the establishment. From the shadows, the masked Princess—a champion of renown and a conflicted operative for Dr. Blakk—watches with a keen, hidden gaze. Eli Shane and his companions have arrived, their eyes scanning the room for any lead on the legendary Celestial Slug, the only hope to cleanse the creeping Dark Water. The fragile peace is shattered in an instant as the tavern doors burst open. A squad of Blakk's mercenaries storms in, their blasters drawn, launching a brutal assault on the terrified patrons. The sudden violence forces Eli's hand, his protective instincts flaring as he realizes the innocents have nowhere to run.
