Ash helped Cleo and her surrogate Replicant mother, Isobel, escape to the off-world colony of Arcadia. She has now returned to Los Angeles to hunt down Selwyn once and for all.
With the help of her old boss, Wojciech, Ash visited the ruins of the Tyrell Corporation and discovered a deranged scientist called Fost, living and working in the ruins on a secret project designated: Project Isobel. With Fost’s help, Ash accessed the Tyrell mainframe and discovered the location of Alexander Selwyn.
Meanwhile, Selwyn, alerted to Ash’s investigation, has activated a new version of the Blade Runner, Hythe, whom Ash killed back on the waystation of Ramanuja.
