Interrogation with Prejudice

On the wastelands of Five-Zones it’s better not to leave traces. But try not to make a mess if you’re wearing high-tech “one hundred outfits,” the simplest of which is a Kevlar bulletproof vest. And all of it—along with you—is packed into a robotic exoskeleton equipped with the latest ranged weaponry. Still, in Five-Zone, it’s better not to stare—especially not to toss coins for luck; after you, who knows who might pass by. Stalkers Glyk and Vedic knew this well and believed it was better to break tradition than to put themselves in unnecessary danger. After all, they didn’t just care about their own skins—they wanted to help the talented scientist Kvarod from the Cove laboratory wrest the Zone’s main secret from it: the secret of the rapid evolution of the deadly Technos.
