Cyberpunk fanfiction: "In Night City, a young mercenary named Kace awakens carrying an experimental engram of the legendary solo Rook, forcing him to question whether his decisions are truly his own or echoes of another life. As he and his escorts flee the corporation determined to reclaim its stolen property, every choice blurs the line between identity, memory, and agency. Elsewhere, a grieving mercenary commissions a construct built from a fallen teammate’s braindance, confronting a ripperdoc who warns that even the most convincing digital recreation may be nothing more than a progressively distorted imitation. Together, these interconnected stories explore what survives when consciousness, memory, and emotion become technologies to be copied, sold, and rebuilt."
