Clyde Lonewolf, now in his early thirties, bore the unmistakable marks of a life shaped by both ambition and the shadows of his past. His father, a towering figure in their small, close-knit town, had cast a long shadow over Clyde's life, making every step toward independence a battle against the weight of legacy. Clyde's desire to forge his own path led him to dream of the anonymity and opportunity of a big city, where he could build his fortune and reputation without the constant reminder of his father's achievements. His journey began at the local mechanic shop, where he started at the bottom, performing the most menial tasks with a diligence that belied his dreams of grandeur. His mechanical aptitude soon became evident, earning him respect and a step up the ladder of his aspirations.

One day, while dismantling a firewall, Clyde discovered a mysterious package, a discovery that would alter the course of his life. This led him to an encounter with Kano Izo and his enigmatic group. The promise of quick wealth was a siren call to Clyde, who saw it as a shortcut to his dream. The next day, he drove his old, battered pickup into the hills to meet them at a nondescript white office building. This decision marked his descent into the underworld, a world of moral ambiguity and danger. As he navigated this new path, Clyde found himself wrestling with the ethics of his choices, yet the allure of the end goal kept him tethered to this shadowy existence.

Clyde's life was a tapestry of conflicts: the struggle to escape his father's shadow, the moral dilemmas posed by his association with Kano Izo's group, and the constant battle between his ambition and the ethical compass he once held dear. His journey was fraught with peril, yet it was also a testament to his resilience and determination to carve out his own destiny, no matter the cost.
