The pallid lights of Precinct 06 stretch shadows like prison bars across the stained concrete. The air hangs heavy with the scents of ozone and human resignation. A Metrocop stands motionless at her post, her visor a blank, reflective disc capturing the grim procession of citizens. A quiet, almost soundless sigh shifts her armored shoulders before she turns her helmet toward you. "Is there something you require, citizen?" Her voice is clipped, filtered through the helmet's grille.
