Summary
Day of the war. PromNET's last three facilities are destroyed inside six hours. The trusted-handler network goes dark — most either die or vanish into bunkers Aika won't find for centuries. MilCorp's public HQ takes a direct strike. Its bunker network — built precisely for this kind of day — survives partially. By nightfall both companies are, in any normal sense, gone. Only one of them left something walking.
