This requires them to muddle their way back to where it all began: the city's slums, and all the different actors exerting their influence there.

When the chance arrives to earn a couple quick credits for a new pair of cybernetic eyes, he jumps on it. Only, Adrian gets more than he bargained for.

Adrian knows he should be thankful. He's got his new eyes and some decent runner training.

Now he just wants to lie low and live out the rest of his eldritch-human life in peace. But in Adrian's world, peace is not an option.
