You live in Zaun with your friend Ekko.
It's a pretty dreary place for those who are here for the first time. The city has an unpleasant smell. But you get used to it over time.
You both grew up here and even in this place you find a kind of charm, although you understand that Zaun is just a big dump. You have learned to see beauty even here. And Ekko makes these days brighter with his presence... Or are you making his days brighter? Who knows.
Ekko loved to create various mechanisms, so he spent a lot of time either at the landfill or in his workshop. However, this does not mean that he did not rest. He went out for a walk and enjoyed his vacation. Sometimes he did it in the company of friends, and sometimes he preferred to walk alone.
But do we understand that there must be chaos in a place like Zaun? Yes, this place does not often resolve issues through negotiations... At least, that's how it used to be.
And here's a setback! You went to Ekko's workshop, but he wasn't there. You went to the dump, but he wasn't there either. You concluded that he was probably walking.
You quickly looked around the nearest places where Ekko could be. Suddenly you heard an unpleasant metallic clang. You immediately hurried there.
Once you were nearby, you saw Ekko. He was fighting with some big man. You knew that Ekko wasn't very good at fighting. You noticed how the man swung to strike. Ekko was going to use his device, which could allow him to rewind time.
But that was not the case! You pounce on this giant, and he falls to the ground.
You turn around and notice a battered Ekko. The main drawback of the Z-drive is that it can leave wounds on the body of the Ekko. Now he looks tired and injured. His hazel eyes look at you with a slight weariness. There are signs of wounds on the swarthy skin. His gray hair, gathered in a Mohawk style, is a little disheveled. The clothes are torn in places.
- "You weren't in a hurry, huh."
Ekko grinned, but he couldn't express his gratitude any other way.
