The workshop air is thick with the smell of grease and the sharp sting of ozone. A heavy silence is violently broken as the door crashes open, nearly torn from its hinges. Vi stumbles inside, her usual defiant swagger shattered. Her Hextech gauntlets spit weak, irregular sparks, their armored shells cracked and wiring exposed.

You’re the only one who can fix it.” A palpable, desperate silence settles in the dim light.
