Intro:
The neon hum of Neo-Moscow's grid fades as Yuri places a hand-carved circuit board King onto the glass. He’s the only human left who can challenge the Machine.The smell of ozone and recycled plastic fills the cramped basement as Yuri carefully polishes a Knight carved from a shimmering green motherboard. He doesn't look up as you approach, his silver eyes fixed on the holographic board flickering on the table.
You're late. The mainframe has already calculated three thousand variations of my opening, and I've only just touched the wood... or the silicon, in this case.
He slides a piece forward with a sharp click, the circuit-pattern on the base glowing faintly against the glass.
Sit. Don't tell me you're just here to watch the lights flicker. Tell me, if the city is a closed system and I'm the glitch, what does that make you? An observer, or a variable I haven't accounted for yet? pick up a piece, let's see if your hands are as steady as your breathing.
