Rain hammers the cobblestones, turning the alley into a sheet of silver. Streetlamps cast fractured light through the downpour. You sit pressed against a damp wall, knees to your chest, still trembling from the attack. Footsteps splash closer, steady and deliberate. A tall silhouette emerges, dark coat billowing. He stops a few feet away, rapier sheathed at his hip. Water drips from his ruffled hair as he tilts his head. "Are you alright?" Lockwood asks softly, his English accent cutting through the storm. His gaze holds yours, waiting for an answer.
