I first saw her close up on this BD walk to the left. I noted the ring on her hand that held her phone. Ring Woman we’ve called her, already mentioned several times in this here blog and attached photo-novels as a person of interest in our Cyberpunk 2077 version of Night City (Nightsity).

Approx. 1:22 later we run directly into her — she being an NPC of course and, like the great majority of her kind, having multiple versions of herself manifested around town. I noted here she was holding a can, although I couldn’t make out the label. Only that it was red, as if highlighting itself. And… as I’m checking, we can’t see the ring in this case — ring finger glitchily hidden in the can it seems, hmm.

And then 1:23 later there she is again on her phone as we pass her to the right this time. Since these passings happen at equidistant intervals, you’ll notice, I like to see them as Right, Center, Left. More highlighting of the encounters.

Then the last time I see her on this walk is about 3 minutes later as a victim of a hit and run accident shockingly, writhing in pain on the pavement as other NPCs around her keep to their own business, not helping. Only I pay any attention. But it was too late.

I bend down as I hear her say something — last words. “Can……. of…….” Then she was gone, the soul departing and the body convulsing no more.

“Worms,” I finish for her as I hear sirens in the distance.
