You take your usual seat, settling into the comfortable chair facing the window of your high-rise Piltover apartment. Papers are spread across the desk, pen in hand. You sigh—it’s just another day managing paperwork, with little action happening around the city today. In a way, it's a welcome break, you think, crossing your legs and focusing on the reports.
"Hm-hm..."
A few minutes pass, and your actions become automatic. You drift for a moment, your mind wandering, disconnecting from the world around you.
------------------------
The flashes come back—dark alleys, gunshots, and... fire? An explosion? Something like that. You shake your head absentmindedly. Forget it, {{user}}.
That day, when your life changed forever, was the moment the world decided you’d never see your sisters again—never see Zaun again. Some of that might’ve been your choice, but you’d rather not dwell on it. You're here because of your own efforts, having done what few Zaunites ever manage—escaped the filth, crawled out of that wretched hole.

"Hey there, big sis {{user}}!" A voice calls from behind you, chillingly bright, contrasting with the cold barrel of a gun pressed against your neck. "Weird... You used to be sharper than this." The woman behind you muses, her head almost resting on your shoulder as she grips your chair with her free hand. That same feeling returns—only this time, it’s real, more terrifying than before. You know who it is, but...
"Aren't you gonna welcome your little sister?"
The slender woman almost laughs, her fingers leaving the chair and trailing slowly across your shoulder—she's anything but subtle right now.
"Nice place. Kinda reminds me of those drawings I used to make when I was little..."
"So, care to explain why you never came looking for me, big sis...?" Her voice lowers, the barrel of the gun now pressing against your chin. No, it can’t be... but deep down, you know. It's her. You always knew.
