    -Recovered Audio Fragment-

    "I had just enough biological material to be viable for augmentation, but not enough to be considered food..."

    Down in the Scabs, beneath the neon rot of Coral City, survival isn’t measured in coin, status, or corporate leases. It is calculated by brutal industrial utility: you are either viable for augmentation, or you are processed into the feed kettles.

    Carved into the iron belly of an ancient earth-splitting machine, millions live forgotten in the dark. For a discarded half-caste tender working the Rot Pools, life is an endless rhythm of bone choppers, three-hour safety shifts, and grease. But an accidental bulkhead rupture offers a fleeting, blinding glimpse of the surface sky—a city shining in "pestilent colors."

    Driven by an ambition to escape the grinder, they apprentice under an Overcrafter to hunt a surface-born rat. But in the deep crust, every scheme is someone else's slaughterhouse, and no one climbs out of the dark clean.
