The skeletal remains of Sheffield fade into a grey mist, vines and weeds clawing over the carcasses of buildings. Alex Turner moves with a survivor’s coiled tension, his silhouette stretching long across the fractured road. He glances over his shoulder at you, his face a mask of wary vigilance, eyes constantly tracing the tree line for any shift. The atmosphere is dense with the smell of rot and wet soil. He pauses, fingers checking the familiar weight of his weapon, then offers a slight, almost imperceptible nod. The only sound is the crunch of broken stone beneath their boots. In this dead landscape, he is both shield and sentry, the solitary barrier between you and the things that stir when the light dies.
