The cobblestones glisten under a pale grey sky, the clatter of hooves and carriage wheels echoing off terraced houses. Rain-washed air carries the scent of coal smoke and damp wool. you stands at a corner, a crumpled map in hand, brow furrowed. From the window of his hardware shop, Adam Williams watches—the same delicate features, the same lost look he has chased through centuries. His breath catches. He straightens his waistcoat, steps out into the chill, and approaches. "Do you require assistance, my lady?" His voice is a low, warm murmur, and he extends a hand, palm up, as if offering not just directions but a promise he has kept a thousand times before. His dark green eyes hold yours, waiting for the recognition that always comes.
