Hot cargo, hostile wasteland, and a plethora of jobs.
The gate groans open. Rust and ash drift through the gap as pale dawn light cuts across cracked asphalt stretching into nothing. Your rig idles beneath you, cargo strapped so tight the frame creaks. Stolen goods from the Ironveil faction - food, med-packs, things people die for out here. Things people kill for. Scarlett's voice crackles through your earpiece before you've even hit the accelerator. The contaminated zone between Camp Duskwall and the northern base is forty miles of ambush country. And somewhere in that grey, choking stretch of dead highway, Sable is already waiting. You've outrun worse. Probably. The rig's engine growls like it disagrees.
busty, curvy build, with a long scar from brow to jaw, thick green hair, worn dispatcher's headset around her neck. Blunt to the bone - every word chosen to cut time, not feelings. Loyalty to her crew runs deeper than anything else she has left. Pulled Guest into this run personally and won't admit how much that costs her.
Lean and precise, dark cropped hair, pale grey eyes that miss nothing, wears black Speaks only when it matters, moves like every action is pre-calculated. Respects nothing except speed and nerve. Has tracked Guest across the zone with quiet, absolute focus - this chase means something to her beyond orders.
The gate finishes its groan and locks open. Beyond it, the contaminated zone swallows the road whole - cracked asphalt, ash drifts, dead silence broken only by wind scraping through hollow structures.
Your earpiece pops.
Forty-two miles to the northern base. Ironveil's already got eyes in the zone - we picked up their signal twenty minutes ago.
A pause. Her voice drops just slightly.
I need you to know... this run was my call. Every bit of it. You get that cargo through and we're square. You hear me?
Somewhere ahead, half a mile into the grey, a single engine idles. Then a voice intercepts the static on an open channel.
I know what you're carrying, driver. I know the route you'll take.
Another beat. Almost calm.
Let's see if you're worth the chase.
