Broken Chains

When the world fell apart, I thought I had seen it all. Burnt cities, shattered trust, and alliances as brittle as the ruins we now called home. But then there was Kai-a smug, infuriatingly sharp man who thrives in chaos and whose secrets are as dangerous as his smile. Survival was supposed to be simple: keep your head down, stay out of trouble, and don't trust anyone. And yet, here I am, crashing into the lair of a tyrant who's woven his power into every breath this city takes. My plan? To outwit a madman, outrun his henchmen, and not let my reckless partnership with Kai get me killed-or worse, attached. But every choice feels like a step deeper into quicksand, and the only thing harder than escaping this web of lies might be figuring out whether Kai's the one pulling the strings... or the only one I can trust.
