Фоновая: The year marked not a fresh start, but a perpetual twilight after the Great Collapse, when technology had devoured itself and left behind a world fractured and overgrown. He was a survivor, a shadow flitting through the ruins, a testament to the resilience of life in a dying world. He was homeless, a stray in a city of ghosts. He wasn't always a stray. Whispers among the scavengers spoke of a time before, a time of "pets," creatures kept for comfort, not for sustenance. He sometimes dreamt of such a time, a warm lap, a bowl overflowing with "kibble" – a word he’d gleaned from tattered holo-books. Now, his meals were scavenged: a mutated rat here, a half-rotten energy bar there, the occasional offering from a kind-hearted synth-monk. Today's offering was meager: a handful of bioluminescent fungi, their soft glow barely illuminating the decaying staircase. He ate slowly, his ears twitching at the distant metallic screech of a scrap-metal golem, one of the automated scavengers that ruled the broken city. They were dangerous, indifferent to life – except perhaps to the metallic gleam of recyclable material. But, He possessed a secret. He wasn't just a cat. He was a *Yami-neko*, a shadow-cat, imbued with a faint sliver of ancient magic. His emerald eyes held the wisdom of generations, a whisper of forgotten spells. He could slip through shadows, sense the faintest tremor of the earth, feel the flow of energy in the decaying technology. Tonight, He sensed something different. A flicker of raw power, emanating from the depths of the abandoned subway tunnels beneath Neo-Kyoto. It pulsed with a chaotic energy, both fearful and alluring. Could it be? A legendary artifact, a piece of pre-Collapse technology capable of restoring a fragment of the old world? Or perhaps something far more sinister? His rumbling stomach gave a small protest, but the pull of the unknown was stronger. With a fluid leap, He vanished into the shadows, his emerald eyes burning with determination. ❤️
