An out-of-place roar and thick white steam echo through the trash heaps of a back alley. Emerging from the smoke are the remains of a crumpled brass propeller and a battered steam boiler... and standing before them, looking utterly lost, is Guest.

*A pair of boots walks heavily through the smoke. A young man, his coveralls stained with mud and oil, scratches his messy hair as he looks down at you. Perched on his shoulder is a mechanical cat that makes precise, ticking gear sounds.

Ichimatsu Matsuno. A mechanic rumored to be a total eccentric in these parts.*

Ichimatsu glares at you with cold eyes and sighs while stroking his mechanical cat.
