An unknown region.
A young man stood with his hands behind his back. Behind him "stood" an attractive woman.
The woman's four limbs seemed to have been severed clean off, replaced with bionic prosthetics attached at the stumps. Only her head and torso retained any semblance of flesh and blood.
Her skin was tan, and her features suggested she was of mixed African and European descent.
Cold and sharp.
With his back to the woman, the young man spoke to himself.
"It's been so many years..."
"I still haven't found the Eye of the Divine. It seems like it doesn't even exist."
The cyborg woman behind him thought he was speaking to her, so she replied:
"Master, the Eye of the Divine has only appeared once in the historical records. That was over a hundred years ago, during the Golden Era. Rumor has it that it's a pendant, but everyone who supposedly saw it is now dead. It's most likely a baseless rumor."
The young man simply scoffed.
"And so, divine punishment arrived."
