Is there a plot summary for C&C4 floating about yet? Do they explain just who the hell Kane is?

No, that's the annoying part. They promised to wrap up all the loose ends like Kane's origin and stuff like that. The story does reveal something, but it creates more questions than it answers.
Basically it is revealed that Kane has been around as long as humanity has been alive. According to Kane he found us when we were still living in huts and made us grow to where we are now but he has been stuck on Earth ever since. It's not really made clear if Kane is Scrin or something else entirely, but his ultimate goal is to go through the Scrin portal inside the Scrin tower at the Tiber river.
It's kind of weird when you take into account the previous parts of the story, because Kane didn't know what exactly the Scrin would do when they came to Earth until he saw the tower and realized what it was for. So basically we still don't know who/what Kane is, why he was here for all this time and how he survived for thousands of years.
