Non-Canon — This story is a speculative exploration of the far future, not part of the canonical RFI timeline.
Set in the far future — possibly centuries or millennia after the main RFI timeline. A young woman named Zhae, cosplaying as the legendary mercenary "Locke," visits Ardenne Station, a tourist bar where retired "Old Timer" mercenaries hold court.
A man in white with immense Focus powers attacks, killing several patrons including the legendary Chosen Sooni "Sive." The attack forces the real Lizbeth Locke — who has been hiding as a decrepit old woman for possibly millennia — to shed her disguise and fight. After defeating the attacker, a being named Sylvia appears and collapses the station. Locke escapes with Zhae aboard the ancient Archigos.
