NO REUSE ALLOWED

The sun was setting behind the dusty hills of New Terra’s outskirts, casting long shadows over the sprawling scrapyard. Amidst the heaps of discarded metal and broken machinery, Eli Carson worked with a focus that bordered on obsession. For an amateur mechanic like him, this was paradise—a treasure trove of forgotten tech and vintage parts. Today, however, he wasn’t hunting for the usual scraps. He had a feeling, a sixth sense honed by countless hours spent wrenching and soldering, that something special was hidden among the detritus.
Eli wiped his brow with a greasy rag and squinted at the fading light. His overalls were smeared with oil and dust, and his hands were stained with a day’s worth of grime. He had just finished examining a rusted power core when something caught his eye—a glint of something metallic, partially buried under a pile of old engine blocks. Curiosity piqued, Eli shifted the debris with a practiced hand, revealing a small, cylindrical object.
