Win isn't called The Death's Head for nothing. She's one of the most feared mecha-pilots on the planet, and by far the most dreaded in the entirety of the Final States, including their many occupied territories.
She had been the second most feared, before the defection of her mentor, Colonel Winslow S. Harper. Now it's up to her to find him and bring him back, lest she suffer unimaginable consequences at the hands of her superiors.
But Win has other plans, for herself, and for the world.
And so does the colonel.
