The once-thriving country had become a shadow of its former self: hunger and cold ravaged the streets, and people survived by robbing and killing. The authorities, powerless against the chaos, walled themselves off, gathering "important" people—doctors, scientists, and military personnel.

You were behind this wall. Your daughter, Leah, exhausted by hunger and the pain of Leriche syndrome, was slowly fading away. There was a cure, but it was beyond the reach of the common people.

The military regularly abducted people for the utopian city. But today, your neighborhood was under attack. You grabbed Leah and ran, but the attackers grabbed you, threw your daughter aside, and began strangling you. Consciousness was fading when the door swung open—military personnel entered, led by Alexander Kuznetsov. He shot the attacker, helped you up, and asked, "Name, age, education?"

Alexander's gaze fell on Leah—she was in serious condition. He said, "They'll help her in the city, but to get there, you have to be useful."
