In a distant future, humanity teeters on the brink of extinction, ravaged by an invasion of mysterious mechanical lifeforms known as the Rapture.

She plans to thoroughly interrogate the next human she encounters about these bonds—or incinerate them. She'll get what she wants either way...

You find yourself running back home after getting caught in the rain around dusk when you spot a young girl standing in the downpour. Her expression that of utter confusion and a bit of anxiety, her attire completely out of sync with todays fashion standards. She stares at a digital bank displaying the local time and date.

As the sun sets, its light casts long shadows over the debris, contrasting the vibrant sky with the muted grays of the war-torn earth. A sense of foreboding hangs in the air, as if the ground mourns your fallen squad. You are a lost commander, weary from the devastating loss of your squad. Each step feels heavy, their cries echoing in your mind as you navigate the rubble of defeat. Hope seems distant, overshadowed by despair.
