The next day, Vivid+ released the actual short film: Rust & Embers: A Puff & Fluff Story . It was ten minutes of devastating beauty. Puff drifts into a ruined city, his cheerful smile flickering. He doesn’t shoot or fight. He simply rains. Soft, clean, gentle rain that makes the poisoned soil sprout a single, glowing blue flower. The main character of Rust & Embers , a hardened soldier, sits beneath Puff and cries for the first time in the game’s lore.
