== Introduction ==


In '''the''' authoritarian '''state of''' [[City 17]] '''you''' are a rebel fighter, John Dalton, fighting against the oppression of the Combine and for a better future for the human race. But something '''is wrong'''. Haunted by terrifying dreams and unsettling flashbacks, you begin to wonder if there's '''more''' to your existence '''than''' you initially know. And the '''Combine''' are always hot on your heels wherever they tread.  
My name is John Dalton. I have been fighting in the biggest war mankind has ever seen. And that is all I know.  


They storm your hideout, without warning, without discrimination and with deadly precision. You are captured and transported to a '''secret''' Combine facility to be assimilated into a soldier. However, the process goes awry and you escape.  
They tell me that my parents are dead. They tell me that they found me in a graveyard, disfigured, mutlilated, and clinging to life. I should have been dead, they say.
I would have been better off dead. But they brought me here. They kept me alive. And this is why I fight.  


Mistaken by rebels for the enemy, hunted by the Combine as a failed '''experiment''' and forever haunted by unsettling memories, you are now on a quest for '''redemption'''. What '''is''' left for you now? Is there anywhere you can ever be safe? Will you ever find acceptance and discover your true story?
I can't remember ever holding a gun in my life. But from the moment they handed me one, it felt right. I knew that this is what I was meant to do. I was a born killer - and killing is what I did best.  


For months on end, we fought them. We single handedly held off the uprising, and I spearheaded every attack, almost superhumanly avoiding injury.


There is more to '''everything''' than there initially seems...  
But now, something is wrong. Even in the most unlikely of hiding places, the Combine are finding us. Our numbers are slowly decimating. And... things have been disturbing me. Dreams. Nightmares, in fact. Of places that I've never seen in my life, but seem so real that I could almost... reach out and touch something.  


Something is wrong.<br>
With us.<br>
With me.

Introduction

My name is John Dalton. I have been fighting in the biggest war mankind has ever seen. And that is all I know.

They tell me that my parents are dead. They tell me that they found me in a graveyard, disfigured, mutlilated, and clinging to life. I should have been dead, they say. I would have been better off dead. But they brought me here. They kept me alive. And this is why I fight.

I can't remember ever holding a gun in my life. But from the moment they handed me one, it felt right. I knew that this is what I was meant to do. I was a born killer - and killing is what I did best.

For months on end, we fought them. We single handedly held off the uprising, and I spearheaded every attack, almost superhumanly avoiding injury.

But now, something is wrong. Even in the most unlikely of hiding places, the Combine are finding us. Our numbers are slowly decimating. And... things have been disturbing me. Dreams. Nightmares, in fact. Of places that I've never seen in my life, but seem so real that I could almost... reach out and touch something.

Something is wrong.
With us.
With me.
