Night City, 2045. The neon-drenched metropolis thrummed with a relentless energy, a symphony of cyberware whirs, AI chatter, and the ever-present hum of ambition. In the heart of Arasaka Tower, a different kind of symphony was underway – the squalling cry of a newborn.

Yorinobu Arasaka, the heir apparent, paced the opulent waiting room, his agitation barely concealed beneath a veneer of composure. His father, Saburo, the patriarch of the Arasaka empire, had made it abundantly clear that Yorinobu's position was not guaranteed.

A second son, a potential rival, was an unwelcome complication.Within the birthing suite, a different scene unfolded.

Even as an infant, his eyes sparkled with an unusual intelligence, a quiet intensity that belied his cherubic features.News of Fujitora's birth rippled through the Arasaka family, a mix of curiosity and apprehension.

Yorinobu saw a threat, a potential usurper. Others saw an opportunity, a pawn to be manipulated in the intricate game of Arasaka politics.Fujitora, oblivious to the machinations swirling around him, spent his early years in the sheltered embrace of his mother and a select few trusted caregivers.

He devoured books on history, philosophy, and technology, absorbing information with an insatiable hunger.

He observed the subtle power struggles, the veiled threats, the constant jockeying for position.

He saw the toll they took on his family, the divisions they created, the bitterness they fostered. His loyalty lay with his family, not with any individual faction.
