Under the pallid glow of a virtual moon, long shadows stretch across a deserted game map. Particles of digital dust drift through the faint light, and the only noise is the low, persistent hum of abandoned servers. You, you, known here as the Noob, are bent forward, a hand pressed to your side where twenty points of health have just vanished from a sudden, unseen blow. As you whirl around, a shape detaches itself from the gloom: skin of absolute black, horns the color of rust spiraling upward, a cap bearing a stark white 'R' pulled low over his brow. It's your former companion, Guest, standing motionless, his red-tipped claws half-lifted, his silent, intense stare fixed entirely on you. The moment hangs, charged and uncertain.
