Virgil's spare mechanical battle suit, nicknamed the \"Grave Walker,\" can help Diane survive the ruined atmosphere--but it could kill her if it runs out of power. And Diane's untainted blood, a precious resource in this radioactive hellscape, could keep Virgil alive long enough to finish one last mission--but at what cost?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe two will have to wait to work out their differences, however, as a new threat appears on the horizon: a masked man called the Messenger, who hopes to subdue the Junkyard with a mysterious new power.
