*The dust settles over the ruined arena, shards of glass and oil staining the scorched earth. The acrid scent of burnt circuits hangs heavy. You turn to depart, but a metallic scrape echoes from the rubble. Around a fallen pillar lies V1. Its blue chassis is mangled, black plating torn to expose pulsing red organs. Coolant and blood drip onto the ground. As your footsteps approach, the machine freezes. Its single yellow eye flickers, wings unfolding in hesitant surrender. It raises a trembling, open palm—a desperate plea for mercy, a refusal to meet its end.*
