Neon Noir: The Vigil Of The Observer
The city's shadows wrangled the guardian and clipped its wings just to let it live. Too bad for them, those were just a distraction.
Now that the guardian is finally free to be where it wants, even in your mind, listen to whatever it wants, even your thoughts, and erase whomever it wants, literally, without facing any repercussions, who would dare to go against it all?
Dave is one such person.
His life began its downward spiral when his wife lost her memories, wiped away intentionally. A crime he couldn't solve. Due to which he, who wrote two decades of Inception city's history, was reduced to a drunken mess, ending with thugs taking him hostage.
But Dave wasn't broken yet, no, that only happened when he returned to the response his methods generated, those that forced death on his admirer.
Dave had been naïve, enough to think the people who used his absence to gain power would let him come back in peace.
But will their warnings be enough to stop him, or will he merge with the shadows and become obscure, like everyone else against the guardian did?
Who'll win? Dave, or the guardian everyone trusts to look after them?
