Overview

Estar works the crystal mines, risking life and limb to carve a path of his own before his mandatory enlistment in the military. Early curfews, faulty body modifications, and shortcuts through the abandoned tunnels beneath the city are just part of life. Helping strangers is not a part of the routine. It's best to mind one's own business around these parts. But that's how Estar met Vinta. That's how Estar's family broke apart. Accidents happen. With the Cause and New Mortai hunting him after a violent outburst, Estar's hunkered down in the belly of an unpowered Seybr Tower. He carries the stolen brain of an automaton, a pseudonym he never asked for, and the worry that he'll never be able to see his family again. But there is some semblance of hope. Estar believes the answers to his problems are sealed away in the Saint's lower levels. After nearly seven years without intentional human interaction, Estar is days away from finding his way beyond the bloodstained barrier of his past, and through the inner doors of the weathered colonial vessel. This is the picture painted by the Holo-Journal he left behind. 'The Last Will and Testament of the Gun Hand' lets the viewer see the point-of-view of a young human struggling with guilt, failure, and sacrifice, with added commentary by the author himself. Lucinda, exiled and recovering from a near-death experience, settles into her underground haven to watch Estar's story unfold. She's determined to use the Holo-Journal as a distraction from her own mistakes while she prepares for a short night's rest under the Moonslight of FaR Colony Settis.
