    Summary

    She was a legend once. Settlements defended, slaves freed, clean water flowing through a wasteland on the brink. But he remembers her differently, as the patient mentor who once taught him chess while he was being molded into a leader. She was too young to carry the weight of the wasteland. He was only a boy when they placed command on his shoulders. Then she vanished, leaving behind nothing but ghosts and whispers.

    Now, clinics rise from the ruins. Blue tape stretched across broken thresholds like law. No weapons. No allegiances. No questions. Only healing. A nameless doctor builds them one by one, even as she searches for the key to making her impossible dream a reality. But the Institute’s shadow looms, and its secrets stand in her way.

    He swears to save humanity from technology; she swears to save it from itself. What began as a boy’s quiet crush sparks into something far more dangerous, even as the savior of the Capital Wasteland takes up her fight again. She never wanted to be a legend. But legends don’t ask permission. Legends are made, one story, one battle, one strip of blue tape at a time.
