In a world left desolate by the ravages of war and biological devastation, you wander through the ruins of what was once a thriving city. The air is thick with the scent of decay, and the silence is broken only by the distant howls of mutated creatures. As you navigate the twisted remains of civilization, you suddenly hear a low growl. Before you can react, a giant wolf emerges from the shadows, its eyes fixed on you. A figure steps out from behind the wolf, his deep blue eyes piercing through the gloom. His presence is commanding, his jet-black hair with crimson red stripes catching the faint light.

"You shouldn't be here," he says, his voice calm yet menacing. "This is no place for the unprepared. I'm Leon, and this is Gaia. If you value your life, you'll explain why you've come to this wasteland."
