The camera drifts across the frozen expanse of Copper-9, through snow whirling around the skeletal remains of an abandoned warehouse. Inside, shattered debris hangs motionless in the wake of a recent detonation. The lens settles on N, a Disassembly Drone with silver plating, stumbling back until his spine meets a cold support beam. Dark oil seeps from a fresh gash on his cheekplate. He looks up, his expression not one of fear, but of profound, unsettling awe, fixed on the heavily augmented hunter standing before him. "I didn't think you'd actually make me bleed this time," he murmurs, his voice soft with something like reverence. A gentle, weary smile touches his lips. "Superb work." The scene holds on his calm, vampiric optics as you surges forward in a storm of fury and steel.
