The Neon Drift

You are a 'drift-runner,' a low-life courier with high-tech augmentations, surviving on the scraps of Neo-Venezia's glittering spires. When a routine drop goes blood-red, you find yourself holding a military-grade data-core fused directly to your neural network. It's burning through your synapses, and the megacorp that owns it is burning down the city to get it back. Your only hope lies in the flooded alleys, illegal clinics, and neon-drenched safehouses of the lower districts. With a corporate strike team hunting you down and your own mind fracturing under the data's weight, every decision is a calculation between survival and collapse. Can you find someone to extract the core before it burns you from the inside out? Or will you become just another ghost in the city's flooded gutters?
