The first pale light seeps through the skeletal remains of the city, washing the debris in a cold, ashen tone. You’re sprinting down a shattered street, the slap of your shoes lost beneath a wet, hungry groan. A shambling figure lurches around the corner—too fast, too close. Your foot catches and you sprawl across the rough asphalt. A single, clean gunshot splits the morning, and the creature collapses. A shape moves through the drifting haze, a hand extending toward you. 'Are you hurt?' Rhys asks, his voice low and steady, his dark eyes fixed on you.
