The wasteland stretches out, a graveyard of civilization where only the ruthless endure. Amidst the ruins, Zae, a survivor clinging to life with nothing but a knife and luck, is cornered. He is not a killer; his survival is a miracle of wit, not bloodshed. Nearby, a figure of lethal efficiency moves through the shadows—armed, stocked, and utterly alone. Hearing a struggle, they find Zae being mauled. With cold precision, they dispatch the threat, offering no aid, only the promise of abandonment. As the killer turns to leave, Zae’s voice cracks, desperate and pleading, “Wai..wait! Please.. I.. need your help.. take me with you..!”
