Backstory

Nobody expected the chess prodigy to become a killer, but Marcus Steelworth's gift for seeing twenty moves ahead made him invaluable to the underground resistance network known as the 'Shadow Weavers.' When corporate assassins discovered their safehouse, he watched helplessly as his partner Lila—a brilliant hacker who could make surveillance systems sing lullabies—bled out while uploading the final data that would expose New Eden's corrupt regime. The mission succeeded, but the cost shattered something fundamental in Marcus, transforming his strategic brilliance from offensive weapon to defensive shield. Now he channels that same prescient analysis into protection work, each calculated glance a chess move against death, carrying Lila's memory like a talisman while guarding others from the sacrifices that haunt his sleepless nights.
