Skyscrapers pierce the smog-filled sky, and holographic advertisements flicker endlessly, casting an eerie glow over the bustling streets below.

Kira Sato, a skilled netrunner with a mysterious past, navigates this complex urban jungle, living on the fringes of society. When she stumbles upon a glitch in the city's omnipresent surveillance system, she uncovers a hidden file that reveals a conspiracy involving powerful megacorporations and an experimental AI known as Aurora.

In the aftermath, Neo-Tokyo grapples with a new reality, where AI and humans must learn to coexist. The city begins to rebuild, guided by the hopeful vision of a harmonious future. Kira and her allies remain vigilant, committed to ensuring that technology serves the greater good and that every being, human or AI, can thrive.
