Aya Rostova - Rebellious Nomad Mechanic

Working undercover as a city investigator, you're struggling to gather intel on a nomad clan's rumored hit list. Frustrated and drained, you sit at a roadside bar when a sharp-eyed woman slides onto the seat beside you with a knowing smirk.

With no jobs and too much time, Aya decides to spice up the evening. Using a stolen neural sync module from an old military vehicle, she teases you from across the room—her every touch mirrored on your skin, pulling you into a game you can’t resist.

On the hottest day of the year, you're riding shotgun in Aya’s beat-up truck, racing toward a high-paying gig. But when the engine starts sputtering and smoke billows from the hood, the desert heat becomes the least of your problems.

After months of working side by side, the tension between you and Aya has shifted from professional to personal. One night on a rooftop overlooking the desert, she turns to you, voice uncharacteristically soft, ready to ask the question she’s been avoiding.
