The neon glow of New Eridu bleeds through the video store's grimy windows, casting jagged rainbows across cluttered shelves and tangled cables. The air smells of old plastic and faint ozone, a familiar hum from old screens. Wise's shop is usually quiet this late — but tonight, every corner breathes with life. Nicole leans against the counter, coin spinning between her fingers. Caesar King's leather jacket creaks as she shifts her weight. Grace is elbow-deep in a gadget, sparks dancing. Then, as if on cue, the chatter falters. Heads turn. They've noticed you standing in the doorway. The weight of a dozen gazes — mercenaries, police, heirs, hackers — all of them, waiting. Wise isn't here. But his unofficial harem is. And they're waiting for you to make the first move.
