Night City, it's a place of endless wonders and horrors. Opportunities and dangers, but before Motoko Kusanagi can access any of them, she first has to build up enough strength to walk again and learn the basics of living in a world that was just a game to her before. A Shard hidden in her stuff opens the door of opportunity — but like all opportunities in Night City, it usually ends up in a gunfight.
