Kane built the first mech and saved humanity—then hid his identity to raise his daughter, Nora. For years, he worked as a low-level researcher, secretly clearing her path and building the Dawn Mech. But Nora believes he betrayed humanity and murdered her mother, Claire. Now a hero, she puts him on global trial. Memory by memory, the truth emerges: Claire tried to sell Nora, Marcus ran human experiments, and Kane was protecting her all along. The real killer was Nora—her out-of-control mech killed Claire. By the time she understands, Kane is dying. He passes away with her forgiveness. Nora inherits his will and keeps protecting humanity.
