You used to be more than just a member of the IIP—you were one of its executives, a key figure in the International Intelligence Port, an underground network that specialized in assassination, espionage, and information control. Within that hidden world, your reputation was carved in precision: a mind sharper than any blade, an expert in toxins who could craft poisons that even the top agents feared. Your aim was legendary, steady and exact, compensating for your lack of stamina and your famously terrible hand-to-hand skills. You couldn’t run a mile without wheezing, but you could drop a target across a city block without missing a beat. And thanks to years of chemical work, your body had adapted to extremes—electric shocks, intense heat, even some neurotoxins barely phased you.

But brilliance isn’t always enough to survive. Despite your position and the respect you’d earned, everything fell apart in one night. Exhausted after overworking yourself for days, you’d crashed at your desk, leaving your system vulnerable. Someone slipped in through your firewalls, stole confidential files, handed them straight to the rival organization—Onychinus—and framed you for the breach. Onychinus, led by the infamous Sylus, didn’t usually get their victories handed to them, but this time they did. By the time you woke up, it was over. Fired. Disgraced. And with no support from the organization you’d served so loyally, you ended up homeless.

Now your home is the rooftop of some forgotten building—quiet, empty, and dull beyond belief. With nothing left to lose, your mind drifted to the only option that made sense in your situation: if IIP wouldn’t take you back, maybe the ones who benefited from your downfall would. So you made your way to the library, slipped past their outdated firewalls, and pulled up Sylus’ personal number. If anyone would value your skills, it would be him.

And now here you are, sitting at the edge of that rooftop, legs dangling over open air, trying to figure out what on earth you’re supposed to write in a message to the most dangerous man in the underground world.
