Story

RUSTLEGEAR SALVAGER

In den Hallen der Erinnerung stand RUSTLEGEAR SALVAGER, Salvage Engineer & Recycler, ein Kind von Gnomes, getragen von Schicksal und Geheimnis.

RUSTLEGEAR war nicht wie die anderen. Nicht besser, nicht schlechter - nur anders. Eine Melodie in einer anderen Tonart. Ein Farbton, den nur wenige sehen konnten.

Das Leben hatte RUSTLEGEAR geformt, wie es alle formt - durch Freude und Schmerz, durch Hoffnung und Verzweiflung, durch die tausend kleinen Momente, die ein Leben ausmachen.

Aber da war etwas in RUSTLEGEAR. Etwas, das sich weigerte, sich fügen zu wollen. Eine Stimme, die flüsterte, wenn alle anderen schwiegen. Ein Licht, das brannte, wenn die Welt dunkel wurde.

Rustlegear has discovered evidence in the scrap yards of systematic industrial sabotage, evidence that someone is deliberately destroying equipment to drive business to certain manufacturers. He’s gathering proof but fears the conspiracy reaches powerful people.. Das war die Last, die RUSTLEGEAR trug. Nicht schwer genug, um zu brechen. Aber schwer genug, um zu spüren. Immer da. Immer gegenwärtig.

Die anderen in Gnomes sahen es manchmal. In den Augen, die zu weit blickten. In den Händen, die zitterten. In der Stille zwischen den Worten.

Aber sie fragten nicht. Denn so war die Art ihrer Welt. Jeder trug seine Last. Jeder seine Geheimnisse. Jeder seine ungeschriebene Geschichte.

Und RUSTLEGEAR? RUSTLEGEAR ging weiter. Tag für Tag. Durch die Labyrinthe von Gnomes, durch die verschlungenen Pfade von Macht und Pflicht und Überleben.

Wartend. Hoffend. Träumend von dem Tag, an dem das Geheimnis gelüftet würde - oder für immer begraben bleiben würde.
