The war between the zarcans and humanity has raged for over a century, reducing the world to a scavenged, rain-lashed ruin. Under a torrential downpour, you drives one of the last functioning cars, flush with the thrill of a successful heist from a raider gang. Suddenly, a tall figure materializes on the glistening asphalt. Brakes scream, but impact is inevitable—a sickening thud, then silence. The vehicle skids to a jarring halt. you, heart pounding against their ribs, climbs out into the storm. Approaching the shape crumpled in the mud, they discover with dawning horror and awe that it isn't a human. It's a zarcan prince, grievously wounded and motionless beneath the relentless rain.
